all depends on what you are looking for, home defense, everyday carry, just have one to go out and shoot for fun, or competitive shooting. best bet if you are looking at handguns would be finding a range that allows rentals and find something that is comfortable in your hands. i am a glock guy, i have giant hands and they just fit me well. you can not go wrong with glock, smith and wesson, springfield. they all have their positives and negatives and again it just comes down to what is comfortable. if you are looking for a handgun i would probably stay with 9mm, its cheap reliable and has the stopping power if it is needed also it wont have a big kick if your lady wants to learn to shoot. as far as rifles that again comes down to what feels right in your hands and what feels right when you shoulder the firearm. 223/556 is going to be your cheaper round in this category and it is easily obtainable in sporting good stores nationwide as its a popular hunting round.Your opinion on what I should get as a first gun
Hand gun would be a 9mm I'm thinking and mainly range shooting but also some carry here and there.all depends on what you are looking for, home defense, everyday carry, just have one to go out and shoot for fun, or competitive shooting. best bet if you are looking at handguns would be finding a range that allows rentals and find something that is comfortable in your hands. i am a glock guy, i have giant hands and they just fit me well. you can not go wrong with glock, smith and wesson, springfield. they all have their positives and negatives and again it just comes down to what is comfortable. if you are looking for a handgun i would probably stay with 9mm, its cheap reliable and has the stopping power if it is needed also it wont have a big kick if your lady wants to learn to shoot. as far as rifles that again comes down to what feels right in your hands and what feels right when you shoulder the firearm. 223/556 is going to be your cheaper round in this category and it is easily obtainable in sporting good stores nationwide as its a popular hunting round.
anything in particular you liked about it?
Revolvers tend to work well for people with smaller hands since the handles tend to be less diameter (versus non-revolvers). A lot just depends on what feels good in your hand. A lot of ranges will let you "rent" their guns to shoot, and that allows you to test a bunch of things.
9mm is what I'm going with when I buy my gun. Ammo is cheap and seems to be easily available. Has enough stopping power to be a carry weapon if that's your use. 9mm also isn't a huge round so there isn't much kick.Well I don't have smaller hands. I will definitely test some different handguns to see how I like them. I think handgun wise I've only shot the .22 and 38 revolver.
I want to shoot a 9mm since I know a good bit of people that have them.

wtfMD is very strict for gun laws.
"Maryland is not a traditional open carry state. However, should you be wealthy or connected enough to get one of the rare Maryland carry permits, Maryland law makes no distinction between open and concealed carry. But this would almost certainly result in the loss of the permit."
lol @ "wealthy or connected enough"
i have my az ccw even though its not need to conceal carry here in the stateYeah our current Governor is trying to get the state to be open carry but I can't see that happening.
My buddy just got an Arizona CCW and certain states recognize that permit but of course Maryland does not. http://www.azdps.gov/services/concealed_weapons/reciprocity/
