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?

So get a Smith Airweight. It is what the Taurus is modeled after anyway.

Mine is lite, has a great trigger and has been a great little gun.

Thanks for the tip; I’ll look into it.

I have the Smith 360 PD and it is a pleasure to carry at barely 12 oz empty. But it kicks with only a .38 special.

I much prefer the baby Glock.

Interesting suggestion. 15oz... heavier than the 360PD or Taurus 85M but lighter than a similar stainless .38.

The one in your photo has a black finish but the S&W website only lists a silver matte.

How well could I expect that aluminum alloy frame to hold up compared to a titanium frame?

It’s a little more $$$ than the Taurus but not *that* much more.

Thx
