One of the NRA mags a few months back had a good article.

I have sold a few and so far all the buyers love them. Sample set of 4.

Been looking into this one for some lady friends who have issues with upper body strength. It's supposed to be easier to rack the slide on it compared to most pistols in its size-class.

It is. The Sig 938 is easier, but it requires cocked and locked carry which is not for the novices.

Also, the SIG will be out of most of their price ranges. I recently had to talk a friend who was a waif even before the eating disorders kicked in out of getting a High Point. I suggested a Taurus 709 or a Kel-Tec PF-9 instead.

If you can find one used, Berreta made a nice .380 single action pocket pistol. With the tilt barrel it is easy to load and the trigger pull isn't real heavy.

I'm still trying to find a Beretta Tomcat for when I need to pocket carry in dress trousers.
