I think I will get Remington 1911 R1 45 with 15 rounds capacity.  If I do get that gun, I might try to get silencer because this gun is loud as fug.

Figured with her a bit nervous about shooting, you were starting her pretty high up on the ladder

Ya, I asked her if she wants 9mm or 45.  She said to get 45 so there’s that.

Good for her, go big or go home.

Was just worried that it might be too much and turn her off when it comes to firearms.  Good deal

She wants to shoot it, she just afraid.  After first pop, she’ll be golden.  She also wants the suppressor even tho it’s like $1,500 after all fees are paid. Lol

Ergonomics was a big thing for me. I wanted something concealable but with large hands I needed a grip that was easy to hold and control. I found the Sig P320 Carry edition with has a compact barrel but a full size grip. I love the grip shape and texture as well. For me it’s a perfect fit but it really comes down to personal comfort and choice.

Just saw this thread and haven't took the time to read all of the recommendations. Hell idk if you have even made a purchase yet.

I would highly recommend the Glock 19 - any generation. In my opinion, it is the most versatile and it is the best bang (no pun intended) for your buck. By no means is it cheap, but it is concealable, high capacity, reliable (like all Glocks), and easy to maintain (again, like all Glocks). I have a gen 3 and love it.

Hope I don't sound like a fanboy, becasue there are plenty of good options and I have no idea what you personally are looking for. Just thought I'd give you my .02.

Nah, not at all.  Is it 9mm?  I got like another week before I’m allowed to buy it.

sure is. 15+1 in the chamber, and it is still concealable if you are planning to get a CCW.

Ah ok.  I think I will go with .45.  More power!

More power is fun. Depends on what you need it/want it for.
