380 isn't a requirement for a woman... but he did say they want to be able to use it at the range, home defense AND concealed carry...
Then he threw one extra requirement... not too expensive. He claims Glocks are too expensive for him.
Unfortunately the cheaper small pistols are not really considered "durable" for lots of range use... and any smaller pistols tend to recoil more than others of similar caliber.
Any pistol she finds comfortable and can shoot well and fulfills her required uses, is the one for her... regardless of the caliber it shoots.
My personal choice is a LC9... but it might not be the best choice for an inexperienced shooter or one recoil sensitive.
