If you're on a budget, the cheapest high quality brand is Ruger. SR9 is a great gun.

Absolutely.
But be sure you start them on the full sized SR9 and not the SR9c, which is the compact.
A lot of newer shooters don't realize this but:
Larger handguns (dimensionally, not caliber) are ALWAYS easier to shoot. The only time a full sized handgun isn't good is if you plan to carry it.
If your sisters just want a nice handgun for general self defense, the Ruger SR9 is very basic and easy to use.
BUT make sure you take them to the store and have them see how it feels in their hands. Comfort is a huge thing with handguns. This is why I can't shoot Glocks worth a damn. The ergonomics are terrible.
Look up my channel on YouTube: Bigapple0828. I have tons of information for new shooters.

Yes. I bought a SR9c for the wife for $425. Its perfect for her. Lightweight, compact, reliable, accurate and inexpensive. The Ruger SR9c is thin and has no finger grooves on the grip so women can get a good handle on it--as opposed to my glock 23 and ruger gp100 which do have finger grooves and they interfere with her forming a comfortable grip on the gun. It also has adjustable sights, which most guns of that size/price do not have. Another added bonus is that she is able to rack the slide easily as opposed to when she attempts to on my 40 and 45.
