Well I am in the process of getting a RIA 1911 so the wife wants to get a pistol too so we can shoot together and so she feels like she can protect herself better when I am not home. I have been looking around and researching which caliber to get her and have decided the .380 provides the lowest recoil with a reasonable amount of stopping power. I was hoping some of you could chime in on what pistol to get her. She will not be carrying this on her... it will be more of a home protection and range gun. She is 5'9'' 140# so I believe she can handle the 380 (correct me if I am wrong!)... Would like to stay in the 300 area (less would be nice)... I reload so I will end up getting a 380 setup
Pistols I am considering
Walther PPK
Bersa Thunder 380
Walther PK380
CZ 83
