Decision To Own A Handgun

Thanks @doc540, I didn't realize there were better choices out there! I'll definitely have her try them!!!!!
I know .357 is a tad pricey, but truly You should sight in and practice with the actual cartridges You're carrying, choose one and stick with it. If You want to run .38 through
the Chiefs Special, that's fine, but carry that. I remember a study, doc probably knows the one, after a shoot-out in CA and a couple officers lost Their lives that pointed
to this as a primary factor. Like doc said, most will be fairly close range if (God forbid) She has to, the Officers on the other hand could be shooting half a small parking lot
away. The conclusion (think this was '72?) was They couldn't hit the side of a barn so to speak, with tragic consequences.
