If so many women and older folks are supposedly getting into shooting why don't we see middle/full-sized handguns in .32 and .380? If it's not for concealed carry but rather home defense or just plain shooting range happiness then should there be more pistols designed to be more comfortable for smaller shooters? No offense meant to the ladies here who shoot big bore.
Sure, there's always a good ol' .38 revolver with mild loads but it seems all of the .32s and .380's recently have been made so dinky that they're uncomfortable to shoot. INHO that's the wrong tack to take to attract and keep new shooters with less beefy arms. The only real attempt I've see along these lines has been the Pavona: a CZ style gun with a .380 option.
