Default Wife's new pistol

Well, the mother in law suggested that the wife and I go to dinner. Not very often we do that. So we eat and have a couple of beers. Wife wants to go walk the pier but the rain was starting. So, I said let's go up to our favorite gun shop and browse. Low and behold they had a Springfield 911 in 380 for 560... sold. She loves it, can operate the slide with no issues. And she can purse carry this one compared to her shield 9mm. Sadly I now have to stock .380 and find a full box of sd ammo.

Anytime you can get mama to carry and practice...? It's a good thing.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Nice pick up! Those little guys are great guns. A bit pricey but, they work. Congratulations. Try the Federal HST in 380.

So, can you hit the broad side of a barn from inside the barn with it?

That's my biggest complaint about most of the mouse guns.

It’s all in the human behind the sights. I can shoot my M&P Bodyguard 380 almost as good as my PPS M2 and the full sized pistols. Today’s mouse guns are not the same ones of yesterday. At least in my experiences.
