>> Shoot!

Somehow I *knew* you’d say that. :-)

Background: Mrs. Tick and I are not yet handgun owners, but we have talked about it and discussed getting our CCL, so far without action.

So yesterday we were with our country cousins who definitely ARE pistol packers. Mrs. Tick’s cousin has a new Taurus Model M85 Ultra Lite Titanium. She fairly gushed over how much she likes it. Carries it in her purse. Surprise of surprises, Mrs. Tick likes it too and now expresses real interest in having and carrying one and working on her CCL.

I’m thinking about striking while the iron is hot, and just getting one of these things (since I *know* she’ll like it and I won’t have to *sell* her on the bennies of having it and learning to use it).

I have researched it some this evening; I am aware that the Taurus is no S&W, it is what it is.

So the question is, all things considered with our situation, is this a poor choice of weapon for a new female pistol owner to carry?

If so, what alternative?

I’m pretty sure we’re going to go with a revolver for her.

Fire away!

Thanks and FRegards
