Alright, I'm posting again hoping to get some advice. I've had some great advice from here so, I'm hoping this will work again.
My wife currently has a Walther P22 (I carry a Ruger SR9c) - I've been trying to tell her she needs a bigger caliber gun if she's wanting to carry for protection but, she's afraid she won't be a good shot with a gun that has heavier recoil. As you probably know, the P22 doesn't have that. Yes, it's a great gun for range shooting but, she needs a bigger caliber handgun. She thinks the smaller guns that have a bigger caliber round like the LCP, .380, etc. are not good for her because of the recoil that comes with them. I mentioned getting her a revolver but, she's hyped up on wanting a more modern looking semi-auto like mine. (I guess she thinks they look cool or something). Any good recommendations for her? She's a girly girl so her outfits aren't well designed for concealed carry very well but, one she could put in her purse or tuck in her waist easily, would be nice. On top of that, I don't want to spend a lot of money, $300-$400 would be best. Any good suggestions, please? Thanks!
