Ep. 76 - Thinking About Buying a Gun for The First Time? Listen to Leland Before You Do

In this episode my guest, Leland Conway, provides valuable insights on buying a handgun for the uninitiated.

He emphasizes the importance of not relying solely on friends' recommendations or the advice of gun store employees, as the choice of a handgun is a personal and individual decision.  (There are exceptions, and he'll cover that as well.)

Leland recommends taking a basic firearms class to learn about gun safety, recoil, and different types of handguns. He also suggests going to a gun range and renting different guns to find one that feels comfortable and fits well in the hand. Leland also highlights the importance of responsible gun ownership and the need for proper training and knowledge.
