Hey, this is my first time here. Wow there is a lot of info out there.
I need some help finding the right pistol for my wife. She has shot both revolvers and autos and really likes the autos. The problem we're having is finding something in a sub-compact or a small frame that she is comfortable with. She shot my .40 xd and didn't like the recoil so she wanted to go smaller. She shot the Walther p22 and loved it but was concerned with stopping power. She wanted to go with a 9mm a actully bought a taurus pt111 with high recomendations but sold it quickly after firing it and finding that it had nearly as much recoil as my .40.
She really enjoys shooting and wants something she is comfortable with shooting for recreation but wants somthing she can relay on for protection. What about a .380? Is the rrecoil on those any less that on the 9mm? Should she stay w/ the p22 get realy good with it and go from there?
