I gotta say that I though my post here was dead. I'm happy to see that it's not and that I've been given some great insight and opinions, which I truly appreciate.[
] I would like to clarify something I wrote in my last post on this topic. I said I was looking for something small enough to conceal yet big enough for the wife to hold on to. I meant actual gun size not caliber. I'm pretty set on the 9mm. When the wife and I went gun shopping last week she felt that the real small ones didn't fit her hand very well. The pistol grip was way too small and awkward. She felt that it would jump right out of her hand when fired. Concealability is important and so is comfort. Seems like there's a pretty delicate balance there between the two. My wife is a proficient shooter with our buckmark .22, so I figured we'd move up to somthing that can be used for personal protection. Once again, thanks fellas for all the great input so far and hope to get even more folks adding their 2 cents. [
