Re: GUN safety training course
CP,
Every range in my area always has an instructor. Now, generally they do not work at the range, but instead are some old timer that is retired and has been certified to instruct people on all the do's and dont's of shooting. I would advise you go this route to begin. The instructors will tell you everything you need to know on how to begin shooting, starting with the most rudimentary basics and going on up from there. Also, there are a number of guns at their disposal for you to try. Guns are all different CP, the caliber will affect the amount of recoil quite a bit. The angle of the "handle" aka grip will affect how the recoil impacts your body alot. This can make or break weather or not you like the gun, its all about how it shoots. Different strokes for different folks. If you want to start I say go for it. Its a great sport and can be alot of fun, but get someone qualified to instruct you and be safe. Oh and if the robber comes for you do me a favor: put a cap in that boyz ass.

Re: GUN safety training course
If you don't want a gun you can always get a dog. A Belgian Malinois or Tervuren make great guard dogs (cops use them), love to play and are always ready to do something. They weight in at 50 lbs.
Mine is a mix but she scares everyone who comes to the door.
Downside; If you have kids get a puppy. Mine is a rescue and you can tell the child she was with was never taught how to treat a dog. Now I have to watch her like a hawk around little kids.
If you get a gun, I'd suggest a semi-automatic. When you're panicy and someone's breaking in the front door, it's a lot easier to insert a clip than put bullets in a revolver.
