Enter to Win Free Gun Friday! IWI’s soon-to-be released Masada Slim Pistol and Caldwell Emax Shadows Pro! Close We must acknowledge that handguns for women are different from those for men. Some people would like us to believe that they are interchangeable. This could be one of those rare instances when we should learn from the French. Viva la difference. I love the things that make us different. RELATED STORY An attempted robbery went wrong Proves Gun Rights Are Women’s Rights the “Best” Handguns For Women. In broad generalities, women are generally smaller and weaker than men. Women are typically smaller than men and have a greater ability to handle small guns. The female fashions are, thankfully, more form-fitting and clingy than their male counterparts. It is a time when female gun owners make up the fastest growing segment of the defensive firearms market. We should all devote some time and treasure to the complicated topic of guns and gear for sex. You shouldn’t Cerakote your favorite 1911 in Pepto Bismol pink and expect lady gun owners to come to your shop like it were Black Friday to purchase one. Women’s defensive handguns should be small, lightweight, reliable, easy-to-use, and concealable. It is interesting that many of the qualities that make a defensive handgun useful for women also apply to hairy Neanderthals. Here’s our list with great defensive handguns that women can use. The Springfield Armory Hellcat 3 inch Micro-Compact SSP is chambered in 9mm. It measures 6 inches in length and 4 inches high. The Hellcat’s small frame makes it an easy-to-hide handgun. The 1-inch width makes it ideal for smaller hands. The smooth trigger also aids in precise shot placement. The optic-ready pistol comes with Tritium/luminescent front sights and Rack U-Notch back sights. If you prefer, you may order the pistol already set up with a Shield SMSC or Hex Wasp optic. Each optic is ready for co-witnessing. The flush-fit magazine can hold 11 rounds, while the extended magazine can hold 13 rounds. The Hellcat can be ordered with or without a safety manual. MSRP: $620 – $827 (depending on options) For more information, please visit Springfield-Armory.com. Walther PDP F-Series, 3.5-inch. The Walther PDP F-Series, 3.5-inch was specifically designed for women. F-Series’ “F” stands for Female. The PDP (Performance Duty Pistol), which is chambered in 9mm, has a capacity 15+1, making it ideal for personal defense. The modular design allows for two frame sizes and three slides. You can therefore build the firearm that suits your personal carry needs. You can chamber a round, clear a malfunction, and more with a 20% slide racking force reduction. It’s much easier. The F-Series Reduced Trigger Reach also offers improved trigger control for all sizes of hands. The F-Series has been completely redesigned to fit the ergonomics of women’s hands. It also features a smaller grip circumference. The PDP F-Series is optic-ready and comes with a free optic plate. MSRP: $699.00 Visit WaltherArms.com for more information. Glock 43 There isn’t much to say about the Glock 43 other than what has already been said. Glock 43 – Regardless of whether you are a Glock lover or not, they have been reliable for many years. The Glock 43 is very concealable with a length of 6.26 inches, a height of 4.25 inches, and a width of 1.06 inches. The Glock 43 chambered in 9mm has a capacity for 6+1 rounds. The Glock 43 is a good defensive handgun with a decent accuracy. The Glock 43’s simple design makes it easy to use in smaller hands while maintaining a manageable recoil. Glock models have safety features built in, including the Safe Action trigger. MSRP: $599.99. For more information, please visit US.Glock.com. Smith & Wesson M&P9 Shield Hi Viz Sights. The M&P9 Shield conceals well thanks to its lightweight polymer construction and narrow 1-inch profile. The grip is comfortable for smaller hands and the 18-degree grip angle aids in recoil management. The striker-fired pistol has a consistent trigger pull that sends 9mm rounds downrange at a faster rate. It ships with both the 7+1 and 8+1 round magazines, despite having a small capacity. You will always have enough ammunition to meet your self-defense requirements. Hi Viz includes a fiber optic green front and rear sight. The tactile loaded chamber indicator has red sides for visual verification. MSRP: $536.00. For more information, please visit Smith-Wesson.com. SIG Sauer P365 SAS Micro-Compact With a length of 5.8 inches, the SIG Sauer P365 SAS Micro-Compact is a small model. The micro-compact designation is also helped by the 4.1-inch height, and 1-inch width. The SIG Anti Snag treatment (SAS), however, ensures a smooth draw. The sight is the only thing that can be negotiated. Night sights, or “sight”, are a departure from traditional sights. The P-365 SAS has a single rear FT Bullseye sight embedded in the slide. It will take some time to get used to, as this pistol requires you to focus on the rear sight. The 9mm chambered pistol, the P365, has a capacity 10+1 and comes standard with a flush fit magazine and an extended fit magazine. It is small in size but has a manageable recoil. MSRP: $599.99. For more information, please visit SIGSauer.com. Springfield Armory XDS Mod.2 OSP 3.3 inch The XDS Mod.2 has a slightly longer overall length and a height of 4.4 inches. The.9-inch width makes the XDS Mod.2 ideal for smaller hands and conceals it well. The slightly larger frame helps to reduce recoil. Three safety systems ensure safe carry, no matter if it is holstered or secured in the purse. The XDS Mod.2 is chambered in 9mm and includes one 7-round magazine and one 9-round extended mag. The pistol features a serrated rear sight and a white dot front sight. It also has a Crimson Trace CTS-1500 Red Dot Optic, which is optimized for co-witness. If you wish to conceal the optic better, you can also remove it with an OSP cover plate. MSRP: $568.00 For more information, please visit Springfield-Armory.com. Bond Arms Momma Bear This concealed carry gun is the smallest on the list. The Momma Bear measures only 4.5 inches in length and can fit into any small purse or pocket. The Momma Bear comes in either.357Mag/.38Spl, or 9mm. It is a Derringer-style two-shot option that can be used for close defense. It is not a semi-auto. The trigger must be pulled manually, which means that each shot requires you to manually cock the hammer. The recoil is not as manageable as those of the larger framed pistols. However, it is unlikely that you will notice the difference in self-defense situations at close quarters. MSRP: $541.00. For more information, visit BondArms.com. SIG Sauer P238 Ultra-Compact Despite its small size, the P238 chambered in.380 ACP. It also features very low recoil. The P238 Extreme uses 1911 design features and has a very familiar feel on a micro-compact scale.

The standard LCP II has integrated front and back sight. The Viridian E-Series has a trigger guard mounted red lazer for better accuracy. This makes it very useful under duress due to its small sight radius. The LCP II can hold 6+1 magazines and comes with one magazine. The lower round count makes it a good idea to buy an additional magazine. MSRP: $519.00 Visit Ruger.com for more information. Smith & Wesson M&P Bodyguard 380crimson Trace This small, compact M&P Bodyguard is perfect for conceal carry as it can be carried almost anywhere. The bodyguard’s short grip is concealing, but it does have a slight recoil. The Bodyguard is chambered in.380 auto and has a capacity for 6+1. It also has double-action fire control for second strike capability. The bodyguard has stainless steel drift adjustable sights.
