It has probably already been said but it is my contention that it should be first of all one that fits the hand, second one that is easy to handel and reload, third one that can be shot accurately, four one that will stop or at lest change the mind of the bad guy.
I'm sure these things have been discussed here on this topic and don't wish to be repeative.
For my wife I got her a Baretta, Chetah, in .380 auto, not that I am a fan of .380's but it is a weapon that fits the needs of her ability to handel the weapon and to load it by herself with out outside help whivch is a must for a self defence weapon.
My wife does not have the strength to rack the action of a Simiauto pistol, which is why I chose this particular one because it has a tip up barrel, that allows a round to be droped into the chamber, I also got her a Magazine load asister that allows her to load the Mag's. by herself and makes that process very quick and painless. but with a full mag in the Mag well locked in place and a round droped into the Barrel and locked in place the weapon is now ready to cock the hammer, remove the safety and squeese of the first round in defence or at a target, which automatically brings the next round into battery.
I just wish tis feature was offered in a bit larger Cal. like 40 S&W, but I guess we cain't have everything.
And before you state the ovious she doesn't want a revolver. And I have learned several things over the years dealing with her if She ain't happy no-one in this house is happy.
