My Dad's new wife is about to get her CHP and was recommended the above pistol by the Holly Lake PD. If anyone has any advice on this double-action .380 I'd love to hear it.

Personally, I'd recommend the Taurus SW9F 9mm, made by S&W. I have two although they require a shoulder holster and are 100% reliable with ANY ammo and both are pre-ban with 17 round clips.

i'D ALSO RECOMMEND THE SMALLER tAURUS .38 Special hammerless 5 shot with a nice Pachmeyer grip.

I'd recommend a lightweight, concealed- hammer, 5-shot revolver in 38spl.

I'd avoid automatics (especially double action), large or heavy weapons (won't carry), too powerful rounds (frightening), blued steel (rust).

A quick search for titanium handguns yielded this. I'm sure there's others.

I personally don't care for wheelguns myself, but for someone starting out who isn't really familiar with firearms, revolvers are the easiest, most reliable and safest.

Let's get off this 60 shiite - cripes.

60 today, is like 70 or 80 not that many years ago.

To my 60'ish self, this is a non-starter in what she should pack.

One further idea is a nice .22LR for practice, plinking, and just fun shooting...plus, it's lots cheaper per round.

I hope that she has a blast.

Actually I was more focused on the woman part. I don't think I've ever encountered a woman mechanically adept enough or interested in doing the maintenance that a carry auto requires to keep it reliable. Not saying there's none out there though.

I only carry guns that don't need cleaning. Not that I'm a woman, I'm just lazy.

Try the dishwasher with your stainless or nickel K frame Smith. Some cops I used to work with said it works... not sure if they're still around though...LOL.
