Take her to a place that has a lot of choices. Wade's pawn and gun on McFarland and then woods and water. My daughter liked the Smith and Wesson m&p shield 2.0 so I bought two. One for each daughter. My oldest didn't like hers so I gave her my m&p 40 (full size) . The 9mm ammo offered now brings the ole 9 to new levels. Personally I wouldn't go less than a 9mm. My daughter shot my h&k vp9 first and was centering a 5gallon bucket from 25 feet. I moved it out to 35 yds and she was still centering it. This was the first time she had shot an automatic. The full sized will have less recoil and more capacity but too big for carrying in a purse . The shield has a manual safety and textured grip.
