I've used firearms all my life; however, my wife has not. I bought her a SW .40 for home protection; having that gun in the house did absolutely nothing for her, but once she took a safety class and we did quite a bit of range shooting she is much more secure (empowered) if she's home alone.  She has 0 desire to shoot anyone.

Not to mention that it's enormously fun on its own.

I mean, unless he's talking about shooting something other than gun?
