So my wife got her first handgun today.
A bersa 380 with Crimson trace grips.
Nothing to fancy, simple to use and she really enjoyed shooting it today and was hitting the target (12 ounce beer cans) most of the time and when she missed it was barely. Hoping she will size up some eventually but she really likes it, she is comfortable with it and fairly accurate so the main points are covered.
I was going to get her a PPK, but I really didn't like the way the magizine release worked. It was right under the trigger guard and I could see somebody getting shot (likely me) so I figured this was a good option for her first handgun. Plus it has a laser so between simplicity and options i think everything it was a pretty good choice.
For the record she wasn't using the laser when she was shooting the cans.
