If a woman trains/practices like her male counterpart then yes, its a force on force equalizer.
However, with 90% of the ladies and even men Ive spoke with.. They don't have that preparedness in their mind/daily routine. You HAVE to be ready and situationally aware.
I tell my woman on occasion:
That pistol or shotgun wont save you should you need it if its in the other room, or if its in its safe, or case, or unloaded..etc.
That and women need to practice and own what their comfortable with.. Not some dainty .380 pea shooter thats too small for human hand like the LCP or some cheap tiny .22 (which MOST guys want to cheap out and get their lady some shoddy pistol) .. I find MOST are comfortable (at home) with a standard (full) sized pistol
(with a light..well mine is) such as the 92FS, G17, 1911.. As most of us guys are..
Where as when you hand them this tiny little G26 to which they too can barely grasp they're all over the place when shooting.
(BTW...380 is a gimmick.. It cant do anything a 9 cant do better.)
But back to my main point.. Awareness and firearm proximity has to be drilled into their routine.
Now if they could make a phone/ipad/keys/firearm tether she'd never be without it!
