My wife has already taken a CCW class. Last Christmas I bought her a Shield 9mm anticipating that she would be getting her CCW. She hasn't gotten it yet.
She saw on facebook that a local gun dealer was having "ladies night" to learn about different pistols and different carry methods. I wasn't allowed to go even though I said I was self-identifying as a woman that night. :haha:
She came back with a lot of information and is excited about starting her carry journey. One thing she learned at the class was that she would be happier with 380. She never really liked the Shield. So looks like we will be going gun shopping and trading off the S&W.
I am asking for any recommendations from people who carry that sized gun. She showed me some of the 380s she looked at, Ruger, Sig, S&W Bodyguard, Tarus, etc. Any methods of carrying for a woman that anyone finds successful would be appreciated as well.
Ironically, I have been looking for a pocket gun myself, so this will be a chance for me to learn too. I love the little Sig "nightmare" 380 that looks like a miniature 1911 and I believe Colt has a mini 1911 as well. Of course these are a little more pricey.
Thanks!
