Any suggestions for a rifle which is manageable and easy-recoiling for someone who is 5'1" and I'd guess not much over 100 pounds? It has to be CA-legal, and semi-auto is strongly preferred.
My first thought was to recommend a late-model mini-14 or mini-30. However, she's planning to move to northern CA, which is black bear country. I'm not sure that a mini would be sufficient to discourage or stop a marauding bear.
Are there any better options?
