I'd like to learn how to shoot a handgun and get a license to carry in purse, etc. for protection purposes (not a big gun person, but a single mom and need for safety). Is there a place locally that teaches and provides guns to learn from while in class (I was told not to purchase a gun till I see what I feel comfortable with, so I'll need to borrow one from the gun school). Also, does anyone know roughly what it costs to learn and get license? Thanks!
