I can't imagine someone not being able to use a P22, but being okay with any 1911. I'm sure it's just my impression, but the P22 seems significantly smaller than any 1911 I've tried. Maybe I'll have to get my fiancee to try a 1911, no I have no ulterior motives there....not at all!
My fiancee has very small hands, maybe a tad larger than child sized. At any rate, my P226 is way to big for her. The P22 works well for her as does out Taurus 94 22LR revovler. The best of the center fire pistols she's felt so far was a Bersa Thunder 380. She also shot a friend's P239 and did okay with that, although the DA trigger pull was too much I think. P225 was a little too big for her.
