I got the roomdawg eased back into her Dad's firearms with her old Ruger 10/22 and a High Standard 9-shot revolver. Pulled a couple rounds out of it and had her pull it out of the holster for each shot. Double action on the thing absolutely sucks, but for what we were doing, SA was fine.

I've got small hands too, and found most of the Ruger SP101 series fit nicely. Am still looking for a 44mag as an aw**** in brush.

My .40 is almost too big to grip, but managed to get control with some range time. FINALLY found someone to move things to the left side of it for me. Target rounds for range; Noslers the rest of the time.

We did some shotgun work before heading to Cordova last summer. Funny stuff. Glad she kept the piece down range and didn't drop it the first time. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Whatever you choose, take a firearms course and get a lot of range practice. The time of need is not when a fellow should learn the basics of shooting.


No matter what you get, no matter what you do, this is ALWAYS the best advice you will ever receive. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
