    Hellow everyone. Just found this forum today and decided to join. Don't really know much about guns but we are considering buying our first for home protection and some fun target practice.

          welcome aboard, you found a great place to start.
          if you any common questions about California confusing gun laws I suggest checking out the calguns foundation wiki information pages, that I posted a link to below.

          they do a great job educating and sum it up in language that's easy to understand.

                              Welcome to the forum. Glad you're interested in the sport/hobby.

                              There are tons of great choices for your first gun. And of course there are tons of conflicting opinions here about it. And recommendations from store employees are going to be biased towards their commission this week

                              Keep in mind that a really good plan is to make a few trips to the ranges that have rentals - there are several in our area - and try a variety and see what feels good. You can pretty quickly narrow it down to a few that are in your price range.

                              There are also several good trainers that have Basic Firearms classes and Safety Classes.

                                      +2 on renting before buying. Maybe a safety class too.

                                                  PIMP stands for Positive Intellectual Motivated Person

                                                  When pimping begins, friendship ends.
