[QUOTE="inactive, post: 1183522, member: 7488"] I think the PPK is a bit large and heavy for the cartridge it shoots. That size gun could be a 9mm; the .380 is available in a much smaller and easier to conceal package. The weight does not help with recoil either, since the PPK is a straight blowback action pistol. In that size and price range, I would recommend a Kahr CW9 or Walther PPS for a slim single stack. For a .380, a LCP, TCP, p238, or Keltec would be more easily concealable and this more likely to go where your daughter goes. This chart should help demonstrate the relative size of weapons compared to one another; however it is no replacement to actually handling them: [url]http://www.mouseguns.com/PocketAutoComparison.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
