I was at my gunshop the other day and I had a chance to handle a Beretta 391 in 20 gauge. I have been looking for a semi-auto for my girl friend and I have heard they are very soft shooting. It was a beautiful gun and was right at $900. The gun felt awesome to me but I think it is very important that she likes the feel/fit. I just upgraded to a Browning O/U and she has since taken over my Benelli M1. It is a 12 gauge, but I reload my shells down to 7/8oz at 1200-1250fps and she says she can't feel it kick at all. 12 gauge might be a lot more versatile for her. Just a thought.
