Im not sure where this thead should be placed. my wife loves her .380 revolver but the glocks are law enforcement only i plan on going to the fbi once i finish school could i get one then and give it to her. are would i have to be issued one for only me? my wife said she would rather have a gl but she says the 9mm is to much recoil for her
Start her with a 9mm that had a long slide/recoil mechanism or a heavier frame (non glock) to absorb a lot of the force.
Many folks, especially women, believe that smaller framed and barreled guns are easier to manage. It's the "0h, it's so cute" factor.
If you haven't had a chance, get her out to a range where you can rent/try several makes and models to see which she likes best.
