She liked the ruger sr22 so that's what she wants. Thanks for the replies. We like that Ruger has great customer service and it was pretty affordable. Good starter pistol for her.

Only reason I don't want the m&p is because I have it in 9mm and want something different.

I am looking for a good affordable 22 for my wife. It will be her first gun. I have taken her to the range a handful of times and she has handled my s&w m&p 9mm well. But I want something cheap to shoot. Any thoughts?

She has applied and we are waiting for her license and permit because we go to the range together anyways and it will be good for her to have.

I am the OP and I absolutely agree with better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6. I was just curious to the law in this crazy state. Thanks for the replies.

I have a firearms license and a legally owned handgun. My wife does not have a license. Say someone breaks into my home and she is home alone and she shoots the intruder with my gun. Is she in violation of the law?
