carry gun for little woman?
Knocker:
To elaborate, I said that I liked my little Colt .380 Mustang because it is small enough to carry in a pocket. It's my "summer gun" when wearing lighter clothing. Most of the year a Kimber .45 is my pistol of choice. Of course if I knew I was going to a gun battle I'd carry a 12 gauge, .223 ranch rifle or 30-06 BAR. >:D
The pistol I usually recommend for a camp gun or lady's gun is a .357 Ruger SP101. Rugged and reliable, .38's for practice and .357 hollow points for carry. Fine for a purse, but a little big for a pocket.

I'm 22...also a poor college student. Getting my permit soon.
If I do need to use a firearm for protection one shot to the head is all that is needed for even the biggest person on earth.

not to be a stick in the mud, but does she know how to shoot. not just at the range. im a firm believer that a pistol is more dangerous to the owner if the owner cant instinctually draw that weapon and pull the trigger. if the weapon is drawn the trigger should be pulled and the mag emptied. no warning shots. ive taught many females to train with their weapons. so that under duress the abililty to shoot is there. doesnt matter what size the weapon is if she cant remove it and be ready to injure or kill somebody. peace

Not as easy as it sounds. Have you ever hunted? Ever had or seen someone get buck fever? Now multiply that with the fact that it's a life and death situation. Ever been in a fight? Then you know what adrenaline does to fine motor skills. There is a reason you train for center mass....
