Johnny C will become famous soon enough
My wife is a probation officer in Bedford In., and though they dont HAVE to pack, the Dept is pushing them too. The regs state that it must be a minimum of a full size 9mm. (I was going to buy her a walter in .380) All the police officers are trying to talk her into getting a Block .40, but she hasnt shot one and I dont have any glocks in the safe. She isnt small, but she doesnt have much hand or arm strength. Last fall I bought a 9mm EMP, from Springfield, and I love it. The wife likes it cause its "cute" but due to her weak hands, she doesnt have a good base for it to recoil against, and it stove-pipes on her every other round.(shoots fine for me). Anyways, she says she wants it for her packin piece!I tell her that if it isnt 99.99 percent reliable, she doesnt want it ( let alone 50% reliable!), but she wont listen to me. I am frustrated in the least. She has a .38 snubby, but doesnt like it ...kicks too much for her. She is set on an auto.
What do y'all suggest for a piece?
