I feel bad for the folks that never had the opportunity to purchase their own. Pistols used to be one of the least expensive ways to get into shooting. A good quality polymer framed pistol used to start around 500, with the budget ones around 300. I have no issues with helping folks experience shooting them!
Thankfully I’m a member at an indoor range that does cheap rentals. I’m aiming to train regularly on a .22 handgun. Only got my RPAL recently, though I’ve been a PAL holder for years.
I’ve also just applied to get on the waitlist for a club that does Olympic pistol disciplines, hoping to get my exemption after chatting with someone at the SFC about the process!
