I am not a lady so hope you do not mind me inserting my 2 cents worth. Have you, she considered a small 5 shot revolver like the Smith and Wesson 642? Small, light weight and easy to conceal with no external hammer. Both my wife and daughter carry one. If she goes that way tell her to be sure and get it with out the internal lock. They come both ways now.
I have no experience with them, but how about the Bersa Thunder .380? It has a safety/decocker. Or the Ruger LCP? Honestly your options are growing everyday with the small concealeable pistols coming out. I believe SIG has come out with a nifty .380 also
I'm a woman and I carry 2 semi-automatics: Colt 1911 .45 and Beretta 92 SB Compact 9mm. I see no reason to carry anything less powerful or smaller. People are no less threatening or dangerous just because I may be smaller than a man. I feel that I am able to mitigate harm to my person or to my family with what I carry.

I would go for the biometric one, should cut down on access time....and it's just cool.
Ok, as a woman, how do you carry these? Forgive me but as a guy I am either wearing jeans or dress pants and I always wear a belt... I have to imagine the ladies have such a wide range of clothing that the holster is a challenge.
As for locking a gun up, IMO it may as well be unloaded also. I am just uncomfortable with a locked up gun. I taught her and her sisters gun SAFETY and I never ever worry in my house. however the younger brother is my ex-wifes child and he has not been taught as much about guns as my children so I am worried about safety when not worn.

I'm all for woman carrying, but I think that she should be the one picking it out. I would take her to a gun shop and let her see, feel, and shoot(if you can rent) the ones she is interested in. How she is going to carry is going to be her call as well, and will vary depending on how she is dressed. There is a myriad of holster and carry systems out there, but at the end of the day it will be her that is carrying the gun, not you. You might want to tell her about the different types of holsters, pocket books, bellybands etc. out there.
Have you started teaching your 8 year old gun safety yet?
I don't wear dresses or skirts. I won't wear something that would preclude my carrying. There is no reason to compromise my safety for fashion.
