It sounds like "big brother" (you, not the govt.) has done his job well!

Nice looking handgun. You should consider going to the classes with her. Not so much to learn for yourself (even though you might pick up a tidbit here and there), but to show your support to your sister and help her realize the importance.

I think it's great that you'll be getting her to the range with you too. The more comfortable she is with the gun, the better chances she's be able to shoot it "second nature" should the need ever arise.
