What recommendations do y'all have? She is not an experienced gun owner but wants a pistol to carry for protection. What would be a good choice for my wife? Been looking at the Sig P365 SAS, S&W M&P EZ shield......
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The S&W Shield EZ the slide really is easy and gets my recommendation.

This is Aldeer...you'll be told to get her a snub nose revolver. Never mind the 20ftlbs trigger pull, miserable to shoot and challenging to shoot with much accuracy.

Glock 43.

I got the wife one with a trigger guard type holster. Lightweight and reliable.

If she’s not an experienced shooter I would encourage you to take her to a range that lets you rent guns to see what feels good in her hands and she can shoot well. My wife carries a 380 Glock G42. Tons of options out there though.

My wife enjoys her 380 EZ. It really is easy to load ,shoot and take apart. I have the same gun in 9mm. It is just a little larger.

Double action revolver no saftey...s&w preferred

.38 revolver.

Ez shield 9.

Best thing to buy is a training class from a trainer. Even 4 hours of fundamentals properly taught will save a life.

I don’t allow guns in the house. They are bad.

When you get her one that she likes make sure that she practices and becomes proficient with it and practices drawing her weapon from whatever type of holster you get her.

After I sell all my guns, I'm getting my wife a slingshot and some steel balls.

.357 ruger lcr with crimson trace green laser

She shoots .38 for practice with no problem.

She shoots at the range with very good accuracy. She is also able to shoot thru old purses at the farm.

We dont often put her in situations where she is alone and the only carrier but it is nice to know she is competent with it and not have to show her protection.

She can walk to her car with her hand on the revolver and fire without ever drawing.


O God, you are my God; early will I seek you. Psalm 63:1
