Thanks for all the advice. I guess I should clarify that this is for a woman I've been training with. I trained with her for a couple of weeks on her .357 (loaded w/ .38spec) and she never flinched once. I just got a new Ruger P95 this week and let her fire a few rounds with it. She flinched every time! Can't figure it out, cause this woman is an experience hunter and a pretty good shot w/ her .357 (which has alot more recoil than my Ruger). Just her first time w/ a semi-auto, I guess and it's got her spooked for some reason. Anyway. Thanks again for the advice. I'll have to try some of that out with her tomorrow when we hit the range.
