What gun does the woman in your life have?

I was just curious what gun(s) fellow THRs wives, girlfriends or if you are a woman, what gun(s) do you keep around for home defense or carry. It is always interesting to hear what guns women like.

My wife can have any gun that she wants because I will buy her anything that fits her hand and she likes but she keeps a Walther P-1 for her gun. She does not carry but by her side of the bed is the Walther. I feel better knowing that she has a gun to protect herself if something happens when I am not home. She is a good shot and is very familier with how it works and gun safety so I don't worry about her hurting herself or anyone else unless she means to.

I think it is important to let your S.O. choose what gun she/he likes.

Why do you ask in the singular? :p

AAMOF, LSW's current favorite is... a Firestar! She also likes her Charter Bulldog.
And her Traditions "Scout" hawken.
And the Sharps .54 percssion.
And her SKS.
And a bunch that used to be mine... :banghead:

The 686 is 'her' gun. She really likes the Dan Wesson 22 revolver as well. So much so that I had to get a conversion kit for a 1911 so I could shoot with her as I usually can't pry the Wesson out of her hands. :p

Very recently divorced, but wife's gun was a Ruger SP-101 .357.

I really miss that gun.

Stainless Sig P230

Very accurate, easy to break down for cleaning and has a hammer drop rather than a safety.

I bought my wife a Glock 17. She loves it. I had to buy it for her, otherwise, she would have "stole" my Glock 21 from me!
She likes the accuracy, the reliability, and the simplicity of the pistol.

She says the DE .50 is mine, but I know better.

Her favorite at the moment is her Ruger GP with a 4" tube.

Past favorites include her 8" python, Ruger P90, and of course her Ruger Mk II. Her favorite rifle is her russian SKS.

She collects most of the handguns, I get to concentrate on long arms.

The Wife's favorite tote around gun is the Rossi M88 that she liberated from me many moons ago. Her favorite range guns are her Glenfield mod 60, that I had to buy her so that I could shoot mine very now and then, and my SKS, "Money Pit". And if one was daft enough to come creeping about the homestead, she's rather fond of the Stevens 311 12ga that rest by the bed.

My wife carries either her Beretta 9000S, or her Beretta 96, or usually her Taurus 357 Snubbie.

Some times she "borrows" one of my guns too.

My girlfriend has basically taken over her dad's meager collection (he never has time to shoot), so an AR15 and a Mossberg 20ga are hers from that way, and I gave her a Turk Mauser for her birthday one year. She's trying to call one of my 1911s and my Rem 870 (she prefers 12ga to 20ga), but I've told her no way is she getting either one.

See, I prefer not to be tied down right now. I'm open, free, and on the prowl. I'm young, after all, so I don't want to get too serious anytime soon.

If you couldn't tell, that's a euphamism for "given my last few disasterous attempts at romantic interaction I've come to the conclusion that I couldn't get a date if my life depended on it".

Thelma's carpal tunnel syndrome makes it tough for her to handle a full-size weapon with a heavy trigger pull. That's why I got her a Kel-Tec P32 for Xmas. Besides, she's already got enough weight in that purse.

Back when my wife was my girlfriend, she expressed interest in learning to shoot. Great, let's go shopping! I have her try out some .380s and some .38s, and she finally says "screw this," unhappy with all of the DA trigger reach issues, and asks to handle a Colt Officer's Model. We still have that pistol today with a short trigger and she has put just about 10,000 rounds through it since we got it.

The Wife claimed S&W 36 as "hers" shortly after getting me a Glock 23 for birthday in 1990. Still also likes plinking with H&R 999 Sportsman.

My daughter is home from college for the summer and shot 4 different handguns with us in a beginner class yesterday. She's getting her first apartment next fall and I've encouraged her to let me get her dialed in on a handgun or shotgun to call "hers". I told her that if she liked The Wife's Model 36, I would start looking to find her a nice used one (Dad thinking $250 - $300 ...).

Although it was not one that we shot yesterday, my daughter did pick up and fondle my most recent aquisition, a Kahr PM9 ... (Dad thinking ... factory night sights, sales tax, shipping, holsters, $750 - $800? ... ). She dry fired it a time or two and said "This one feels pretty good ... How do you spell that? K - A - H - R ? Can I shoot this one next time?" :eek:

Wife claims to be a better shot than me, but her is with a needle, (ER RN ). Doesn't care for guns, but after all, she's the one who told me to buy the property, and build the range! Can't fault her for that.

May 25, 2003, 11:02 AM
My wife has an SP-101 .357 in a Bladetech IWB - We both love this gun, so we'll probably be getting another in the future. Besides it's a great gun for the money.
She also likes to shoot my Secuity-Six that Grandpa left me.

My wife really cracks me up - Instead of a SHTF thing, she's got a "cat theif scenario" (CHTF?) happening and what she'd do to the theif! Where she'd stuff or hide the cats etc. It's really too funny to hear her talk about it- :what:

IME, it has been 1911s. They find it easier to wrap their hands around than a crunchenticker.

It depends, just like men. Current gf likes a G22.

Gewehr98
May 25, 2003, 11:48 AM
She favors some over others, though. Especially the Colt AR-15, Winchester 9422, Remington 521T, Ruger 10/22, Luger P-08, S&W PPC conversion, S&W 52, S&W 36, and Browning Buckmark.

She's not real fond of the Ruger #1S in .45-70, unless I make blackpowder cast bullet loads for her. :D

Still leaves me with plenty for myself, come range day.

I don't have a current woman in my life, :rolleyes: but many of the ones I've had relationships with in the past have taken some armamants away from the relationships.

I've equippd now-exs with snub 38s, 4" 357s, 1911s in 45acp, Remington 870s, Winchester 44magnum lever guns, straight razors, pepperspray, a .223 AK, and a big honking knife that in her hands looked like a sword (she was 4'8").



Hey that can be my new tag line...date Phil for a while and get a gun.:what:

Like several others here a Ruger SP-101 .357. I think she'll get something smaller--probably a SW 642--when she gets her CCW.

The wife's carry piece is either a Glock 26 or a Taurus snubbie .357. She also has her own SAR 1, Marlin Mdl 60, Remington 1148 12 guage, and complete confidence in every gun in the safe. Her next wants are a 1911 officers model and a nice bolt rifle in .308.

God, I love my wife.:D

I have and love a Glock 26. I also have an NAA mini in .22 magnum, which is just too durn cute not to love. I love my buddy's .22 short even better, but I admit that neither of the minis counts as a real gun, and I would carry neither for personal defense unless I truly had no other choice.

Other women I know carry a blue Taurus snubby (she carries it, loves it, thinks it's pretty, but hates to shoot it), a Kahr PM9, and a Kel-Tec P-32. Actually, I know a couple of women who have and love the Kel-Tecs, and while I don't consider them adequate for personal defense I note that they are considerably better than bare hands.

My experience has been that most women I know are really attracted to visually pleasing guns -- the matte blue snubby, a bright blue Kel-Tec, the undeniably-cute little Tomcats. Sure, it's a practical tool. But does it look good, too?

May 25, 2003, 04:20 PM
My wife most definately likes guns that look good along with function.

Her soon to be carry piece is a Taurus 851, shrouded hammer, adjustable sights. She was going to carry a Tomcat, but it's more pretty than easy to shoot. And she has a P99 and P22, I wanted her to go ahead and carry the P99, but she thinks it's too big (for a purse!)

Trisha
May 25, 2003, 06:08 PM
Susan is a devotee of the 1911 design! Her favorites are her Kimber Custom Eclipse, and her Colt Combat Commander. Her pet though is her Walther PPK/S.

If my Kimber Custom Compact had bar-dot night sights I'd likely see it quickly migrate to her side of the bed!

She's very proficient with everything else, but in her book, nothing is as perfect as the 1911 design.

My wife of greater than 20 years really does not like guns, unlike myself and every man in her own family. I have only been able to get her to go to the shooting range once in the past year and she had that "pulling my tooth" expression on her face all the time.

She is a good wife and a great mother to our 4 children, but she just doesn't want to understand the need for guns. Yesterday, though, while she was driving, I got the opportunity to read her a few stories from the latest Robert Waters book. Instead of opening her eyes, she simply said that I had an obsession that perhaps I would one day get over.

Although my wife of 27 years doesn't shoot nearly as much as she once did, she has a CCW permit and carries and practices to keep her hand in.

She has a custom built (Caspian) Compact Commander (commander slide on officers' frame) that she shoots better than any of the full size 1911s she used to own. Her carry gun (purse) is a Kimber Ultra Carry with XS Sight Systems Big Dot 24/7s. Her vehicle gun is a Kimber Compact Covert, also with 24/7 Big Dots. She has an SP-1 Car 15 that she loves to shoot on those rare occasions when I can get her to go rifle shooting.

My girlfriend, Meredith, has become an enthusiastic pistol and shotgun shooter. She just bought her own first pistol. After trying my guns -- Buckmark through 1911 -- she settled on a CZ75B. She shoots it quite well, and I've almost got her convinced to try IDPA. We shot the Springfield Armory "Action Pistol Challenge" at the NRA show in Orlando, and she absolutely loved it.

Not too bad for a woman who, three years ago, was an anti-gun, big-government, Clinton-loving liberal. :D

My wife is a wheelgun girl - she's got an S&W Model 10 from the mid-70's that looks like it just came off the production line. One of the first times she took it shooting she shot a walnut at seven paces - we had a good laugh at the fact that all she had to do was tell her would-be attacker she could shoot a nut at 7 yards and they'd never come near her :D

She's learning to appreciate the semi's though. She spent a weekend shooting with the local SWAT team and it helped her see "my way" (I shoot a Glock)..........

A Browning Buckmark Camper model. She keeps it under the bed, and carries it once in a great while.
There isn't much interest in shooting on her part. Her rationale is: "You carry, why should I?"
She grew up around guns, so they're just not a big deal for her.

My wife carries a Browning High Power. I put a set of melted nite sights on it, an extended slide release and safety. Smoothed up the trigger also. Don't piss her off, the first time she shot it she skipped a soda can until it was nothing but shreds at 30 yards.
It fits her hand perfectly and we all know that the HP points like an extention of your hand. She now has her CCW and carries it with her everywhere. One less female victim.

Mrs. Giant has a S&W J frame model 60 357 magnum in stainless and a Glock 17 9mm. She also has a 4 inch barrel S&W .22 revolver in stainless and a Thompson Center Classic .22 scoped. She likes her .22 rifle, but will not shoot my Garand, says it is too big! She likes my Mossberg model 500 in 20 gauge with a 18 inch barrel and has shot it with good results.

Mrs. Giant married within her species, her dad was an NRA rifle and pistol instructor. Lots of guns in the house as a child, was properly instructed on gun handling safety. I don't recall her or anyone in the family robbing banks, killing folks indiscriminately or committing gun mayhem of any kind. Guess all those far left leaning gun grabber control freaks are wrong -- One of these days, soon those left leaners are going to lean a little too far and fall flat on their face! Already seen a few left leaners drop by the wayside, looks like its starting to go bad for them. Mrs. Giant and I are doing all we can to tip more of them over. Left leaner tipping is great fun and every right thinking person should try it at least once.

My wife has a Star Model B Super. She likes it because it is so thin, she has very small hands and it's one of the few handguns she really feels fit her hands well. Good single-stack 9mm's are hard to find. I'm considering getting her a Kahr for our anniversary.

Oracle,
If you get her a Kahr, I bet she will love it. I have a Star B and I really like the feel of the slimmer grip but the Kahr fits my hand like no other. I had the all steel 9mm and think it is a winner if you don't mind the extra weight. It is a mild shooter just like the Star B so you don't have to worry about recoil if she is sensitive to it.

My wife likes the Hi Power- says the Speed Six .38 kicks too much:confused: . Fine with me; justifies the Beretta 92 (too big for her) and the 6" Security Six (if you don't like the .38, don't try THIS).

Well my better half's favorite is a Walther PPK, but she also has a Taurus 357... she teases me about my single action saying "There have been some advances in firearms in the 20th Century, ya know."

M1 Carbine and is very good with it, small light weight, and fits her well.

Well she can and does from time to time shoot just about anything in our collection but there are a couple that are pretty much recognized as her guns, the ones that fit her and she likes.

SP101 .357 snubby.
Walther P99 9mm I miss that gun:(
Inland M1 Carbine, what a fun little gun.
Bushy AR 15 14.5inch with AK muzzle brake.

Very soon she will have a Benelli Nova Special Purpose 18.5inch with Ghostrings for her shotgun. She loves our friend Dave's and wants one.

She has had her eye on MY M1 Garand as of late but that one is mine I tell you all mine........my precious.......my very own............Cslingers precious.......my gun to rule them all................:evil:

But I digress.

For her CHL gun she carries a Colt Government Model Pocketlite 380. For deer hunting a customized Mauser chambered in 250-3000. This Mauser is one accurate and beautiful gun!

After taking her to the range yesterday and trying a variety of guns she chose a Glock 34 as her favorite. Looks like it's time for me to buy another 9mm range gun! darn ;)

What's hers is hers and what's mine is hers. In other words, she has rights of first refusal from the armory :uhoh:

BTW, I did get my wife the Kahr, an E-9 specifically. She loves it, fits her like a glove.

Well, she seems to have permanently "borrowed" my P7 M8, and uses the first person plural possessive in relation to it with somewhat disturbing frequency. I am glad she has taken an interest in shooting, and I would get her anything she likes to shoot . . . but I wouldn't have minded if she had chosen something a little less expensive to like!

Taurus 650 CIA (.357 snubby) and Kel-tec P-32.

She loves both guns but rarely carries the larger Taurus "unless there is increased risk". :rolleyes:

BTW - She carries with .38 +P in the Taurus. While she can handle .357 loads (and occasionally carries them - hiking, etc), she likes the lower recoil and faster follow-up shots of the +P.

I've got a Kahr P9--just put on new Agrips! Every girl's gun should have a little black dress. Will be doing the CCW thing as soon as my new holster arrives.

Also have my dad's old Ruger revolvers: New model Single Six and old model Blackhawk. The former's great for introducing friends to shooting.

Also liked the XD-9 Sub--a lot.

No woman in my life right now, but my younger sister has developed a interest in going shooting. Ill start her off with my buckmark, but shes already saying that my 1911 with alumagrips is really pretty! She thinks my polymer guns ares just ok though.

So all my autos are relatively safe. I made the mistake of passing up a NIB Sphinx AT-380 at a gunshow...then stupidly told her about it. (The only auto she wants) Let's just say...it wasn't pretty. Having to get up to THIS ":mad:" every morning for a month was pretty awful. She's got wheel-guns out the...well, you know. However, I do know that today she left with a custom Taurus
Multi-Alloy 85 with Crimson Trace laser grips. (She doesn't really need the laser grips though. Tis' true--women ARE better shots.<shrug>) She's looking for something in .45 Colt. I'm standing in the background. It's for the best.
She also carries this wicked looking Benchmade folder in her purse. I think it's a model 850, but I'm not sure about that. It's a pretty big knife.

Biggest Mistake of my life was lefting my Sphinx AT-380. If I ever find another I will dig hard and deep for the money. Right now the wife is getting aquainted with her new Taurus 650 and some mildly stout reloads.
