If your female friend loves shooting, but has great trouble with [please forgive me] jacking the slide, you need to take a look at the new Shot Show announced, EAA Tanfoglio Witness "PAVONA". The Witness is a good clone of the much honored CZ75-B. The EAA video hyped the Pavona as a special project of Tanfoglio, by and for females. Briefly, they did redesign it with an easing of the slide, but they did not change the size and geometry for smaller and weaker hands/wrists. It[9mm] is a double stack holding 13 rounds, with great heft and balance that my petite wife loves.
We can forgive the obsolete marketing theory that females want pink frame pistols, but Tanfoglio goes a lot further; You can get a Pavona in 380, 9mm, 40S&W, and choose your glittery frame colors from all-black, silver over black, lavender/pink, blue and purple.
Report from a 4'9" very small handed, but tough, RN female: She loves it and proceeded to shoot the center out of the target at about 10 meters.
It has the CZ rail system to reduce recoil, and IMO, the build quality is superb.
It would be a great Mothers Day present, at a reasonable price!!:usa2:
