    Get something that shoots .357 also. It is not a chore it is a Bad arse round.
    Are you looking to just target shoot it or carry or both?
    I love my SP101 for carrying.

    Tanner's and Surplus City are both great, as already mentioned. Quinby's in Dublin is also a great store.

    (Shameless plug time - I'm selling a 6" GP100 and a Beretta 92fs at the moment.)

    Tanners. Excellent service, very friendly, and they know what they are talking about.

I'll warn you up front, he doesn't sit well with anyone not taking his lessons seriously. But he will take you on his range and walk you through safe use one on one.

    I'm assuming you have no experience with firearms. The idea of a safety course is a good one. They are offered at Classic, RAF and Pistol People.
    I’d second this. Steve at Pistol People is a great guy and is very willing to teach if you are willing to learn. Selection is small and more Glock heavy. Overall it’s a pretty easy going place to be.

    Thanks Guys!

    My first handgun will be for fun, recreational range shooting ONLY! I have
    no plans to carry or have no plans to set it up for self defense.

    So thats why im thinking a .22 and .38 revolver would be great choices
    for fun, range shooting.

    By once I start shooting, I may have a change of heart, who knows.

    You will. They're like potato chips or crack. They multiply quickly.

    Tanners have Walter P22. great plinking pistol in .22LR. I paid $299 for it. Also, I know the guy, who recently picked up consigned P22 there for just $60. Can't beat that!

    Also, Wicen's range is right around the corner, and they also offer classes.
