Need help with buying a gun for my wife
She can shoot and grew up with guns. What 9 does your have wife have? Small to conceal but not a big recoil.

My wife wants one mainly to take when she goes hiking and is out in the sticks quite a bit. Seems smaller is best here?

Depends I suppose. Is she worried about 2-legged or 4-legged dangers?
