[QUOTE="spd67, post: 973894, member: 9008"] Kahr makes some great small pistols in both 9 and 380 though they are a bit pricey. My wife carries a Sig P238 in 380 in her purse and she loves it. I have a Ruger LCP in 380 but I only carry that when I am running. At all other times I have my Smith and Wesson 642 and a Springfield Champion in 45 on me. Getting a bigger purse may also be a better option for concealment. There are several companies that make concealment purses and perhaps you should look into them. 380 is not the best round for personal protection. The advantages of 380 is size, you get concealment and carry ability with it. But for a small pocket pistol or BUG it gets the job done. If she can handle it I would get your wife set up with a Air weight Smith and Wesson Revolver like the 642 the size is only slightly larger than most 380 autos and you get a better caliber and reliability of a revolver. The 642 will also disappear in a womans purse. [/QUOTE]
