Don't listen to dumbfugks that can't shoot handguns.

OK, assuming you can shoot handguns, what’s your recommendation? LOL Just STFU.

I agree totally with the airweight 38 Special. Simplicity is key, pull it out, point and pull the trigger. No slide or safety or magazine. Just pull the trigger. This is the correct answer IMO. If she has to use a handgun for self-defense it will be a high stress moment and trying to remember the drill that may need to be done with a semi-auto may be more of a hinderance than helpful. While I agree with the concept of weekly shooting / training sessions realistically that is not a scenario that is going to happen with most folks. S&W / Colt / Ruger or other similar snubby double action and if it has to be used teach her to just keep pulling the trigger until it just goes click. drover

lol I recommend you get the lady in question some basic training and let her decide for herself. So simple. So correct.

My wife carries a Taurus public defender in her purse when she's out and about and a Ruger .380 LCP on her person. Pretty much from one extreme to the other. She prefers the Ruger .380 to her Lady S&W and shoots it a lot better also.
