Get type of uninitialized slice

I want to return a type of an interface{}, while the input value might be var m []*MyModel

I've managed to get to the type *MyModel, while MyModel not as a pointer seems to be unreachable to me.

func getType( m interface{} ) reflect.Type {

    t := reflect.TypeOf( m );   
    v := reflect.ValueOf( m );

    if t.Kind() == reflect.Ptr {    

        if v.IsValid() && !v.IsNil() {          
            return getType( v.Elem().Interface() );         
        }

        panic( "We have a problem" );   

    }

    if t.Kind() == reflect.Slice {

        if v.Len() == 0 {           

            s := reflect.MakeSlice( t , 1 , 1 );            
            return getType( s.Interface() );    

        }

        return getType( v.Index( 0 ).Interface() );

    }

    return t;

}

Is it possible?
