My son will too soon be 18, and for the first time is showing interest in a handgun. In fact, just today he told me that for his birthday he'd like a handgun. He's always shot rifles and shotguns, he's familiar with the four rules, and I'm familiar with IC 35-10-7.
He has big, meaty paws - 6'3, 250 on a light day. He's a big teddy bear.
I'm thinking a wheel gun for the relative simplicity of operation, and I'm thinking .22 caliber for shooting on the cheap and low recoil.
I like the Ruger LCR 22. Any other suggestions??
Budget: $400 negotiable, lower is better.
Use: Range, home defense.
Experience with calibers: .22, 9mm.
