I have a 39A Carbine my Grandfather gave me when I was 12. I have so many memories wrapped up in that little .22.
We also generally start new folks with a .22 rifle then move on to .22 pistols since I have a few, including a Ruger Single Six revolver that everyone loves.
As you have alluded to, over-horsing new shooters is a bad idea.
