[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 873824, member: 1132"] 3913. S&W even made one in a "Ladysmith" version. I have a 3913 and it's an excellent carry gun. The trigger reach in DA mode may be a little longish for someone with short fingers though. The Kahr P9, J Frame Smith, Kel-Tec's and Bersa .380's would be good options. The Springfield EMP 9mm would be a good one to look at, but pricey. Sigarms is also making a 1911 pattern .380 that should be a very managable size. Make sure that whatever she looks at, she tries all of the controls and checks to make sure the recoil spring and trigger pull are managable. Some guns may feel comfortable in her hand, but not easily operated due to stiff springs or control placement. [/QUOTE]
