My daughter refused to shoot my 22 target pistols or child size 22 match rifle passed down from her oldest brother. "The hole isn't big enough!" The bigger the hole, the bigger the "boom" the more she liked it. Must have been genetic, when I tried to teach her mother to shoot long ago I bought her a really neat 4" 38 with target sights. She latched onto one of my 45 autos - "If I ever have to shoot someone I want the biggest bullet I can get."

Have to agree with your wife. If I must shoot someone, I don't care if he (or she) dies or not, but I want to put several of the biggest holes I can make in him to convince him to stop doing whatever it was that made me think shooting him was a good idea.

Yup, and make sure they're dead. It confuses the jury less when there's only one side to the story.

From life and 34 years teaching I can assure you that many people can confuse themselves without any help or second opinion.

When I purchased my first pistol, I took a handgun class give by one of the local police departments. I was so proud of myself that I told my wife that she should learn how to use the pistol. In order to accomplish this, I volunteered to teach her everything that I had just learned. I took her to a local gun range and proceeding to display my newly acquired expertise. Doggone it, she turned out to be a better shot than me.

I feel for you.
When I was in 7th grade my friends and I had a disk(cardboard milk bottle cap) on a string swaying and jumping in a stiff breeze/wind and were shooting at it with air guns. Not an easy target. My Mom came out in the yard to deliver some cookies or something (small town, every Mom is everyone's Mom when it comes to snacks and keeping track of the kids), asked if she could try. She took my air rifle, hit that swaying disk three times with three shots, handed the rifle back and said "That is too easy. Move back further." then went in the house. Our fragile little male egos were stomped flat like a pancake - but we got over it and went hunting craw fish in the creek at the foot of the hill behind the backyard.
