I'm looking for a 9mm for my wife. I have done a lot of shooting and training over the years, but with family obligations I'm not able to make it out to the range as much any more. She got her lifetime permit last year, and is interested in getting something for carry.
Single stack 9mm seem to fit her hands well. We've looked around, and she's handled a variety of them, and she liked the Para Ordinance LTC PCC99R the best so far. I was pretty excited at first because I mainly carry 1911s, and I've always thought of Para as a reputable manufacturer. But in my searches it sounds like this particular model is having extraction issues. I'd like to find her a reliable single stack 9mm 1911, something in the commander size would be good, but and officers model would work too. The big thing is that it needs to be a single stack (thin) in order to fit her hands well. Any suggestions?
