[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3115062, member: 5412"] I've been in that situation before. Had lots of men and women of all ages ask about what to buy for SD. Had both women and men complain about racking the slide and how hard it is. Once they discover the push method vs the pull method, it's not that hard. I just tell them to buy a gun that fits their hand size and load it up. By the time any situation develops and is resolved, they won't even remember they have a spare mag, and even if they did, the situation would be over before they finished their first.....one way or the other. You can't force people to train and shoot on a regular basis, and in most cases, they don't have anywhere to shoot, and have no idea who can train them without some outside influence of a regular shooter. So, all that being said, if you can help someone out, do it, but don't expect them to have the same fervor about SD and shooting that most on this forum have. They just don't have that fire in their bellies. [/QUOTE]
