Best ccw for smaller ladies?

[cdschoonie]

It would be cool to bring her to an ENS so she could try a bunch of different ones out. But as already said, its hard to beat all the good choices out there now. I'm a J-Frame fan, but also like the vast choices in semi-autos. Stay with a top brand and let her find one that she is comfortable with.

Speaking of which, when is the next ENS?

I know H&H rents, what others rent?

Big Boys in Mustang has a large selection for rent. It's a nice facility with nice folks.

@cdschoonie: Whenever we want it to be. Talk to her, send me a couple of dates by PM and we’ll run one up the pole and see if we can’t get a few folks to join us. Big Boys is a decent indoor range for this. Seriously, this is easy to do. I’ll bring an Airweight, a Glock 43X and a Walther PPS M2. And a Belly Band.

Now how’s that for an offer? This is OSA and we get ‘er done.

I would also suggest looking at the Ruger LCR in .327 Mag. Range of ammo goes from .32 short (which has about the recoil of a cap gun), .32 long, .32 H&R, to .327 Mag. She could get used to shooting with low power rounds and work up to some decent SD rounds. I believe that Hornady makes a Critical Defense offering in .32 H&R that appears to have good ballistics.

This is another excellent suggestion. (Well, it came from a fellow Jarhead after all) I know one guy here on OSA who has one; I shot it down at Big Boys awhile back and it is one fine gun. The ability to use all that variety of ammo is a real plus. I’ll see if he will come and bring it when we go shoot.

I'm thinking about hosting one in October. My range is north of Medford about six miles south of the state line.

Red Rock Firearms east of Enid. Nice place with indoor and outdoor ranges.
Also, Henry’s Guns in Yukon.

Not related to the choice of a firearm, but with regards to her going for her concealed carry permit, remember that if she "qualifies" at the training for the permit with a revolver, all she would be able to carry would be a revolver or derringer. "Qualifying" with a semi-auto would let her carry any of the three types. Then, after getting the permit, she could carry the revolver if that is what she wants.

Now, having said that, I don't know if the CC rules with regards to the above has changed.

She held this at Academy tonight and liked it.

There's a positive thread on this pistol over in the handgun section. But just because its cheap isn't a reason to buy it. Let's try to get an ENS set up to offer some choices if you are interested in doing so .

Yes, I remember that, thank you!
