I find that there are a lot of uneducated men who think they can go buy a gun for their wife/girlfriend/sister/mom as though the purple Bersa is the one size fits all woman gun.

Take your girl to the store and let her choose for herself.

CQB60, She tried the LTT & Wilson Combat side by side and preferred the LTT specifically because of trigger quality. I was shocked. LTT trigger is the real deal. Better than my P226 with the Sig trigger job.

We will see how she shoots it in a few weeks. If she likes it, I see a compact in her future.

Sprg03-A3, There are more trigger enhancements available for the LTT? Do tell.

Easiest way to tell. Did it come from Langdon or did it come from Beretta?

If it came from Langdon it is all done for you. If it is a LTT from Beretta all the Langdon mods are done minus the TJIB(Trigger job in a bag). My LTT was from Beretta and the trigger was nice. Nicer feeling than any other Beretta trigger. I put in a TJIB and it brought it up to another level. Then you can get the NP3 coated trigger bar and stuff which they say smooths it out even more. There are different mainspring weights as well.

Said he wanted a lightweight revolver in 357 magnum.

Turns out to be a Beretta 92G Elite LTT. Just an amazingly smooth handgun.

It is on layaway until her birthday when she will make her first handgun purchase. She is thrilled and so am I.

My daughter turns 21 in just a few weeks. She has been shooting handguns since she was 12 and has shot a wide variety of pistols and revolvers. However, despite shopping for HER handgun for the last 5 years, she still hadn't found the right one. As a starting point, She knows she doesn't like striker-fired polymers and 1911s. She likes my P226 SSE and my P220 38S and shoots great with both.

Monday I asked her to lunch and an afternoon of gun shopping. She ran through the list usual suspects: Sig Legion, CZ, H&K, etc... Then she saw the Beretta line-up. Out came a black 92 variant that I hadn't seen before. She ran the gun through the checks and said: "You have got to feel this DA trigger." it was smooooth. Zero stacking. Crisp break. Amazing. She was hooked.

Lesson learned. I would have never looked at a Beretta due to my own bias from previous experience. She found a gem because she had no bias.

Nicely done! Regarding the "more" trigger enhancements, I'm guessing it's dropping the Langdon Trigger Job kit into a Wilson. I won a Wilson Brigadier and the trigger was better than stock but didn't "wow" me. I installed the Landon trigger job kit and holy smokes it's like night and day! I've since compared it to a Langdon LTT and they are the same. That trigger, whether from Langdon direct or the kit installed in the Wilson, is amazing. I've found it to be much better than the Sig trigger job on my MK25.
