Does she shoot? A 1911 is more of a professional's gun...is she's familiar with the platform? RIA is a good place to start..wouldn't go subcompact, though. If she's a new shooter, I'd look at a Shield or M&P with a manual safety or a J frame revolver. YMMV

What said. My wife carries a S&W 640(642) hammerless air weight 38 special. Light and easy to carry.

My wife likes my DW ECO in 9mm and she handles it well. That's out of the price range you said though.

I was shooting with a friend this weekend and he tried out his new Ruger LC9 and was impressed with the accuracy. His came with a CT lazer which worked well for close rapid fire. My wife is liking my LCP and if she takes it I will seriously consider the LC9.
