I have a lady friend who is looking into getting a home defense handgun. She is middle-aged with a few health issues that weaken her hands and arms a little. She also has smallish hands and wears glasses.
I know a lot about guns and shooting, but I don't know it all. I wanted to bring the question of smart choices to this group.
She'll be going to a range in the Hillsboro area to try various types and styles, but I have to make a few recommendations. I'm so far leaning toward a lightweight single stack 9mm pistol with a laser sight. Perhaps an LCP or G43 type. They're small, light, easy to reload, and have low recoil.
What else do you think should be on the list?
Thanks!
