I'm a relatively new NRA Pistol Instructor. I could really use some on-line resources to give my female CCW students to help them research issues particular to women who carry guns. I'm looking for real practical advice on gun and holster selection, other carry options, etc.
The good news is so far I've been able to relate well to my female students and have been able to help them improve their shooting skills and in some cases help them determine what handguns would work well for them. What I really need to learn more about is how the practical physical differences affect carry options and how women can find a solution that works well for them. For example, my wife is "short waisted" and when she tried my Milt Sparks VM 2 the but of the the gun was almost under her armpit.
I'm aware of "Armed and Female" by Paxton Quigly and I'll be ordering a copy to read myself and I've already reccomended it to a couple students.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Rob
