Or you can buy a gun and then get training before you start using it on your own.

Well yeah, but it would be helpful to get the training and work with someone to find which gun to buy. Getting training lets you fire a variety under supervision which will improve your chances of liking what you buy.

Point. I went pistol shopping with my uncle, but got a few days of training locally.
