It occurred to me... while you might already have an LCP to let her try, if you two are ever down in the Indy area, she can try out my Crossbreed holster for it. Its VERY comfortable, doesn't require your pants to be much larger than usual, and hides the thing incredibly well.
I agree with those who say she should have a different gun for range time and still get an LCP (or similar) to have something small enough she can always have it with her.
I also agree with the recommendation for a defensive pistol course. I highly recommend the one the Boone Co. Sheriff puts on. He offers a "ladies only" class so she can take it without fear of being hit on by a bunch of guys. Of course hubby might be more interested in her taking that one than she is The sheriff will also loan equipment if you contact him ahead of time. That way you can take the class BEFORE deciding on what kind of gun you want. He will strongly discourage you from using an LCP for the class. He thinks they are great little guns, but not appropriate for a 2 day class.
PM me if you want to try out the holster. If you are willing to pay for shipping (and promise to send it back), I could possibly mail it to you to try.
