no wheel guns, please.
she wants a semi-auto, compact enough to fit in a purse or coat pocket.
.22 so she can shoot as much as she wants. i know, minimal defensive chambering. but hey, if it's something she will shoot often, and carry ...
suggestions?

Ruger SR22

Been hearing nothing but great things, comes with 2 magazines, and is real reasonable

Given that criteria, I would seek out an old Beretta Model 70 in .22lr. They�re light weight, compact but not so compact that there�s next to nothing to hold on to. They are utterly reliable, and very accurate. But they�re not cheap, nor are spare magazines. Well worth it if you want the best.

Don't look over the Bersa T22. Don't get me wrong, there are many day's I wish SR22's had been available when I bought Bersa but to be honest, it's not a bad gun. Mine's been 100& with MiniMags. For her purposes I'd have her handle both the Ruger and the Bersa and pick which one fits her best.

But a tie goes to the Ruger.......

The new Ruger 22/45 LITE semi auto might be a good one to look at, as well.
