I got a list of guns....

What can I say she don't like Glocks

Out of the choices listed I voted XD. I HAD an XD40SC, and it is one of those pistols that I regret getting rid of. Oh well, hindsight being 20/20 I guess I'll just have to buy another one later on down the road. Second Pick would have been the LC9.

She is wanting something to carry, but also needs it reliable and accurate enough to use for qualifying for the sheriffs posse

Since she is using it double purpose, I'd probably stick with something larger than a "pocket pistol"....

XDm
Shield
PX4
Rami

I've shot all four and like all 4... I carry a Rami because I think metal is sexy and I like the CZ75 platform. The XDm and Shield are both nice pistols and the PX4 is a happy medium between the 3. My range buddies both owned PX4's at one point and both regret ever getting rid of them (they traded them for 1911's). IMO its one of the most underrated compacts out.

Good luck finding a Rami.... I also owned a Ruger SR9c and it was a great pistol, but it was tough to rack the slide for my fiance. Make sure she operates all of them to see which she is most comfortable with. My Rami is easier to rack than the Ruger, but the PX4 storm was VERY easy to rack

Mine - SR9c Wifes - Nano

Big difference between an LC9 and and SR9c. That said, I REALLY like my SR9c w/CT laserguard.

Have to agree, my SR9c is a great pistol. The wife really likes her Nano.

I would go with the px4 as in my earlier post. As you said happy medium, and she'll enjoy it for many many years.

I like the Walthers both PPS and PPQ. For carry I'd suggest the PPS it is small enough to conceal but large enough to shoot well. It has proved to be accurate and dependable.

What can I say she don't like Glocks

Sounds like you need a new girlfriend

 

[scott delaney]

haters are going to hat!...but my wife really likes her pt111 mil pro in 9mm

 

[SSGSAD]

Well, I NORMALLY, would vote S&W, but to keep the poll honest, I have no experience, with the shield. So, I have shot the XD/XDM, can't remember which one.. Anyway it is a ,40 cal. I like the gun, but not a fan of .40..... My buddy, carried it when he was LEO ....

 

[LPPOsecurity]

Well some bad news, she held my XDm in .45 and she couldn't quite fit her hand very well, so I'm thinking a single stack 9 with a barrel over 3.5 inches, maybe a sig

 

[warren5421]

Stay away from the EAA Witness as certain calibers have had a lot of problems. If you get a good one they are nice. I like the CZ but carry a 1911 in 10mm.

 

[drrun]

XD from that list...

 

[seedubs1]

The xdm has a big grip. It really doesn't work for my wife. However, she loves my m&p shield, which I think is a very nice firearm, and I'd highly recommend it.

 

[davidrock0011]

I have my Glocks 9mm for myself I just bought it new from my friend.. Its looks so nice but the accuracy also 100% under the 100 yards. So I think its the wonderful deal for yourself you can buy this same for your gf or wife also yourself..

 

[LPPOsecurity]

I am interested in the fact there are no 1911 options in this poll.. My lady has a 1911 I got her a few months ago.. She likes the easy trigger pull.. She has very small fingers so it was hard to find her something she could feel comfortable with.. She also liked seeing a physical hammer.. Also the 1911 looks "pretty" in her words..

I'm pretty sure my girlfriend is out of her mind completely because she is the only person I've ever met that thinks 1911's are ugly.... Makes me wanna cry

 

[88E30M50]

Actually, I'd go with the CZ 75B compact. It's about the same size as the Witness, but has better build quality. It's also about $100 cheaper than the CZ 2075 Rami last time I checked.

 

[Cowboy45]

Oh My!!!

I'm pretty sure my girlfriend is out of her mind completely because she is the only person I've ever met that thinks 1911's are ugly.... Makes me wanna cry

I honestly don't think I have ever heard some use the words "ugly" and "1911" in the same sentence!! That's insanity.. I would prolly cry to.. Although all my hand guns are 1911s except for the ruger GP100 and Mark III so i wouldnt have to worry about one being "borrowed".. My girlfriends mom carrys a Glock 26.. She has small hands but she handles it well..
