Ive personally never shot a sub compact 1911 and just want some input.

I just purchased a Spartan III 9mm 1911. It has a 3.2 inch barrel and sits nicely in the palm of the hand. It is "made" in Texas, but assembled in the PI, by RIA.The price was $650. SIG has the 938, which is 9mm and costs a little more. Then there is the SIG 238 in .380. I would suggest taking her to a range/gunstore where she can handle and possibly shoot a couple. should be fun. Best wishes.
Merry Christmas
