Ok guys/gals, I need some honest opinions based on experience.
My daughter will be turning 18 in August. She really enjoys shooting and wants to get her first handgun soon. So, I am thinking about buying her a handgun and sending her to a training class.
Now she is 5'2" petite with small hands. She has some trouble with all my handguns. She has shot my wifes Bersa .380 fairly well but I would like to steer her toward a 9mm.
I am kinda thinking M&P Shield 9mm.
What are the ladies thoughts? Guys ask your wife/GF and help me narrow down the search.
She doesn't much like the idea of CC a revolver because she feels like they are too bulky (width). Of course at her age she seems to always feel the need to wear tightish pants so a slimmer gun will be needed.
