"Don’t compete with her own choices; buy her a back-up piece."

Point well taken....so your recommendation for a good back-up piece?

[papertyger]

I’d recommend one of the “Under-Nines.”

If you wish to impress her with name brands...Kimber Solo,or Sig 290. Otherwise, a good “meat and potatoes” choice like the Ruger LC9, or the Keltec PF9.
