[QUOTE="Daryl Licht, post: 1409269, member: 3330"] If at all possible, let her shoot the pistol before committing to it. Renting a a great idea, or maybe get some help from local friends. She should be comfortable shooting whatever the 2 of you decide on. Women with small hands usually find the smaller weapons comfortable to hold but a nightmare to shoot. They also may or may not have enough strength in the wrists to shoot a smallish handgun even in 9mm. IMHO, the DA revolver is the safest handgun ever conceived, especially for people who don't spend a great deal of time with them. There's no safety to disengage when the BG appears or to re-engage once he's on the floor and harmless. There's no decocker to remember to use after an incident. Just point, click, put back in the purse until it's needed again. [/QUOTE]
