I ain't no lady either, but my wife is[:D] She carried a Colt Pony Pocketlite .380 for about 4 years and hated it. Trigger pull was so heavy, she couldn't get through an entire 6 rd mag. Accuracy was ok-ish but just didn't please her. One day at the range, a group of 4 brothers all had Kimbers, and like true Hoosier gentlemen, offered to let us try them out. She LOVED the Ultra CDP .45. I'd of never dreamed as puny as she is she, she'd want a .45. Well, she's got one and absolutely loves it. She's out-shooting me and my G23[:(]
As far as carry, she's a beautician and carried in her purse until 3 women were slain in a beauty shop in Montana last Sept. She uses a Galco Concealable High Ride Belt Holster now.
What's that old saying? If a fly packed a .45, nobody'd ... oh, nevermind.
