I need the OB's opinion. Should I buy this pistol for my wife? Update pg 3

This would be the first gun my wife has owned. Little concealed carry Taurus .380
A buddy of mine owns it and is willing to sell it for $175. He said there have maybe been 15 rounds put through it.
My only hangup-there's no safety
Would this be a good buy?
TIA

Has on of the best reliability ratings of a .380. 175 bucks is pretty dang cheap

I do have a question for you.
Why does your buddy have a pink piece?

Does not look fun to shoot.

No. No. No.
It will not be easy nor fun to shoot. She will hate it.

Looks very unpleasurable to shoot.

Own it - it's a bad mofo
I had a compact .380 and hated shooting/practicing with it.

He bought it for his soon to be ex wife.

Ouch, fair enough.

For $175 that's not a bad price, but that's not a very good gun. If you really want her to have it for defense it's worth a bit more research and investment.
If you're set on .380, try Ruger LCP.

so, the consensus is: the recoil will be too much for her to handle due to the size and design of the gun?
Posted on 2/17/13 at 9:43 pm to LSUFan3434
Those little guns are just hard to grip, have a terribly long trigger pull, and are usually quite snappy.
I had a LCP and hated it bc of that
