so, wife is getting more into shooting now. she is liking my xd9 more and more, so maybe it's time to get her something.
little background... we like shooting IDPA, Steel Challenge, and probably USPSA eventually, and just regular plinking. she has a ruger mkIII for plinking and we are looking for one to shoot steel challenge, IDPA, and USPSA.
preferably we would like to get another 9mm because ammo is cheaper and if i get into reloading, we only need to reload one type of ammo. however, we are open to other choices as well. if i had all the money, i wouldn't mind getting another xd9. however, in reality, i don't have all the money and would probably like to have different guns to shoot as well. she also really like 1911, expensive taste of hers, so that might be one of the choices.
anyways, she thinks the grip on xd is still slightly bigger than how she would like, so any suggestions on a pistol that's good for our use and with a smaller grip?
we will probably go into the store and try a bunch of them out as well.
any helps are appreciated! thanks!
