We met some friends over the weekend and his wife mentioned she was going to get a CCP and she loves the Glock19 she just bought over the .38 snubby she used to own.Recoil was less,easier to shoot,better accuracy etc. Well it got my wife thinking, I bought her a Taurus 85 years ago that I had a trigger job done,barrel ported and smoothed the trigger face and put a different grip on it.She's got that bug in her head and I'll probably take her to a range that rents multiple options. But what are the wives liking?strictly defensive, probably never carry on her,maybe a bag or something like that. | ||

My wife went from a Glock 26 to a M&P Shield some years ago and has no regrets. _________________________________________ I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew... | |||

Carry: MP shield 9mm. Range: Glock 19 9mm. I am thinking about starting to use the Glock as my carry gun. I'm most accurate with it and I've changed a few things on it. If only it was easier to conceal. | |||

My wife claimed my 5" PPQ. It fits her hands better than it did mine, and it's easy to manipulate the slide and controls. <><><><><><><><><><><><><> "I drank what?" - Socrates | |||

My wife loves revolvers. It is a matter of what she is used to, but she doesn't like the empties being ejected by semi-auto pistols. It is a little silly, but there you go. But semi-auto shotguns don't bother her. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

My daughter likes my SigPro 2022 for home and my 938 for carry. Wives of my friends carry either a Springfield 4" EMP 1911 9mm, Smith & Wesson Model 60 with .38+P, Ruger LCR .357 with .38+P or a Ruger LCP .380.

My wife is a great shot with her little S&W Model 60. Only semi-auto I've had in her hands that she liked was a G19, she was far more accurate with it than I was. Likely too big for her to carry though. She was not a fan of my dad's .40 P239. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

My wife picked a P239 SAS 9mm. She shoots it really well. She tried a lot of guns, S&W 380 bodyguard, 2" 38 revolver, P238, P938, among others. P239 was heavy enough to help with the recoil and small enough for her hand. | |||

My sister carries a Glock 27, .40 Shield, and a Colt Defender in .45 ACP. She doesn't like anything in any smaller calibers. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

My wife carries (when she does choose to carry) a 238 HD. Risk the consequences of honesty... | |||

My wife rotates between 3, her SIG P226 Legion 9mm SAO, her Kimber CDP .45 and her STI VIP in .45. Yes, she likes single action and yes she can shoot all of them with acceptable accuracy. ———- Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for thou art crunchy and taste good with catsup. | |||

Wife has a LCR .38 now, but will be migrating to a Glock 42 when funds allow. ________________ tempus edax rerum | |||

I am comfortable shooting most firearms I have tried at this point. In terms of home defense, I'd probably go with a Remington 870 in 12 gauge. As far as the range, my favourite at the moment is my Springfield Armory 1911 TRP Operator Full Rail. I'm Canadian, so sadly carry is not an option. I am not particularly fond of revolvers, and I despise Glocks. Cathy | |||

My wife qualified for her CCW with a Ruger SP-101 using .38 Special Target loads. She dislikes revolvers because of her reduced grip strength, and after trying several makes/models decided on the Sig P238. She has one in her purse and keeps another one by the bed. She refuses to even try another pistol. She shoots the P238 very well, and that's all she cares about. ______________________ NRA Benefactor Life Member GOA Life Member Second Amendment Foundation Life Member JPFO Life Member | |||

One of my daughters loves me Sig 229. I bought her her own in 9mm and she's doing quite well with it. My other daughter prefers my Glock 22, doesn't seem to bothered by the .40 recoil. I suppose when the time comes, I'll get her either a 17 or 19 of her choosing. My wife doesn't shoot  | |||

Since the mid-80s, my wife has carried daily. The guns have changed over the years, to name a few: S&W Model 38 Nickle Bodyguard, S&W 3" Ladysmith .38, Stainless Colt Ofc's Model .45 ACP, SIG P228, SIG P230, HK P7M8, Kahr K9, T9, and P9, Glock 19, and since 2005 a Glock 26. She has owned numerous other guns - range guns, training guns, competing guns, etc... but the above ones were carry guns. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow's battle is won during today's practice. | |||

My wife took possession of my P239 in 9mm after I retired it and the pistol is now her EDC. Up until that point she has been carrying a Px4 Compact which she still owns but it has been relegated to range trips and SHTF events. Laughing in the face of danger is all well and good until danger laughs back. | |||

My wife likes the chiappa rhino, PX4 compact, and the Remington 870 in 12 gauge. She is not a fan of rifles. ___________________________________________________ But then of course I might be a 13 year old girl who reads alot of gun magazines, so feel free to disregard anything I post. | |||
