Even if someone has handled firearms before?
I planned on getting a 10/22 to get familiar with shooting again as you said... but as a kid I put about 1000 22lr rounds down range, and I dont have a need for a long gun right now so I jumped into a g23.

Sure. I enjoy shooting my rifles way more than my handgun. It all depends on the intended use though.
If you need something easily portable, get a handgun. Otherwise a rifle outperforms a handgun in every category.

I agree with wheelr, fundamentals are much easier and safer to learn on a long gun than on a pistol.
If someone wanted to jump straight into a pistol I'd recommend some formal training.
