Here is the situation, my daughter has a strong preference for revolvers. To add to that, she is very recoil sensitive and has very small hands (she also came very close to failing the ROTC firearm training).
I already shoot, and reload, .380. That makes it a good fit there. I also can install spring kits to bring the Taurus trigger pull down. It has the advantage of being very lite. I am a little concerned with the moon clips; but they seem to be pretty available.
The Charter Arms is going to have even less recoil; but is shooting a less capable round. There are also the rimfire concerns.
Why not the Ruger 22 LCR? . . . Have you looked at it? Franky it failed the "too ugly" test. She didn't even have the LGS guy take it out of the display case. The S&W is hard to find and more than she considers reasonable.
I consider either of these to be less than great; but I am not really a revolver guy. I am leaning toward recommending the Taurus, this is largely due to it being centerfire. Any other thoughts?
