[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 1017993, member: 1242"] I would take her to a gun shop and let her handle all the guns she wants. When she finds one that fits her hand (translate: a gun SHE likes the feel of), go find a range with rentals and let her shoot it. If she likes it still then buy one. If not, repeat until SHE finds what SHE wants. I wouldn't worry too much about the caliber. If you act like it is not a big deal it won't be a big deal. I never even shot a .22 until the past year. Started out on 9mm. It wasn't long before I was shooting everything I could get my hands on. My favorite gun is a G31 (.357SIG). Be prepared to buy several more guns ... her preference will change the more she shoots. I started out with an XD because I didn't like the feel of a Glock. However, after a little bit (when I became more proficient and my grip changed) I actually sold the XD and went back to Glock. I never did and still don't like the feel of the M&P in my hand. Everybody is different ... Most of all, have fun!!! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
