In my zeal to recommend the Glock I overlooked this. Definitely concur with Megatron - train first, carry later.
And there is an enormous difference between redneck out the woods gun handling and defensive pistol carry gun handling. I can remember thinking "I've been shooting since I was 7, what the **** do I need training for?" WRONG ANSWER AND WRONG ATTITUDE. Get training, and make sure you get it from somebody who knows what they're doing, not some douche who just completed an NRA instructor course and barely knows more than you do now.
