Hopefully, when she agrees to get her CHL, this can be her carry. The only pistol of mine which she will currently shoot is my walther TPH in .22lr, so the 38+p is going to be a big upgrade and about as far as she will be willing to go.
This is what she will practice with and shoot with every time we go out so that if she ever needs a weapon she won't be fumbling through my safe trying to figure out which pistol to grab or how to use it.
1 - did she help pick the pistol out? (if not, are you sure it will fit her hand comfortably enough that she won't hate practicing with it?)
2 - would she be interested in talking with (or going shooting with) another woman either with/without the menfolk along?
(I ain't the world's best shot, but I've had my CHL since 2004 & can use any excuse to hit the range to practice...)
