I didnt notice the new shooter part. .380s in general are a poor choice for first guns. The character of the recoil is unpleasant to most people.

Not a problem for a seasoned shooter. Maybe not even a problem for this new shooter - but it would pay to rent/borrow one for a range session first. Let the newb try a bunch of different guns and find out what they like before buying something they don't.
