I bought my wife a 380 EZ. I liked it so I bought me a 9mm. It’s a great option for someone with arthritis in their hands. I have one of both as well. I ordered each a armalaser off Amazon and I and my wife really like it. It activates when you grip the pistol.

I would consider a revolver type pistol. No jamming, etc.
Agree 100%. A S&W Air Weight 38 is the best weapon for an unexperienced shooter. No functions to worry about going wrong. Super light and easy to conceal.

I have an Air weight and before gundoc performed some magic with the trigger (that was even too heavy to read on his gauge) i couldn't hit the broadside of a Barn lol.
How many people am i willing to sacrifice for freedom?
Everyone. All of them...
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

Lots of recommendations. I'll hit things from a different angle. I've trained and / or been with numerous women during firearms training over my LE career. They are just as competent and capable as their male counterparts. Some more so. If I was going to set her up, I'd take her to a pro shop and let her pick out a pistol, of a reputable brand, that was ergonomically correct for her. Then, I'd get her signed up for some quality training. Training is key. Lots of good ideas and suggestions here, gentlemen. Thank you. She said herself yesterday that whatever she gets, she wants a safety & training course besides just shooting lots of rounds at targets out here in the yard. I told her that was very wise.

Smith and Wesson makes their shield models with an optional thumb safety. 380 or 9mm EZ is a no brainer.
