Teach her basic safety and handling so she doesn't have a difficult time. Be near her to support her.

This senpai. Show her how to be safe with guns and she should get enough courage to want to go to the range eventually.

Showing someone that there's a safe way to handle guns is the first step to making someone unfamiliar with them comfortable with them.

All my middle eastern girlfriends loved guns, you fucked up.

My gf used to be antigun and I have slowly converted her to wanting to shoot, asking about different calibers, and going to gun shows with me. I think her original fear has lead to her carefully paying attention to her movements and staying safe. Ive taken other girls shooting and they give a shit about the insta and looking cool.

It was her first time shooting. She was nervous, its obviously more of an american cultural thing.

But she wants to try it again.

I see posts like yours all the time, do people normally just hand their guns over to people without doing over the basic of operations and safety for a few minutes?

Not to say I'm not free of all guilt. The first time I took my hyper-lib gf to shoot I went over every essential I could think of, but I had gotten so used to the idea of how sights work that I only told her to "line up the sights over the target." Turns out he didn't even know what the sights were and was just kinda eyeballing it.

i'd let her rack my slide

I went over it before yes and demonstrated. I think she was very nervous.

Just explain in plain detail why you practice so much, I put it to mine that it was a necessity to practice and keep proficiency up with it.

It helped that she was never quite anti fun, but it's taken awhile to get her to go to a range quasi regularly.

My last girlfriend really wanted to go shooting with me. She used to shoot with the support team from her old job. But every time I planned a trip to go shooting it conflicted with something else she'd scheduled for us, like concerts or something. Then we broke up.

As an aside, every Filipino-American chick I've talked to loved shooting. Weird.

>How can I make sure she has a good time.
Let me take her.
