She used to have an old Colt .32NP revolver, which she liked because it was an old classic yet kinda disliked because it was small and piddly, but she had to sell it a while back. I'm thinking I might get her a replacement for Christmas or something... I've got a while until then. I'm thinking she might enjoy a .45ACP as a larger round might be easier for her to load and help her feel more confident if heaven forbid she needs to use it.
She does know her way around guns and can shoot my .357 without any trouble, so I'm not too worried about recoil or anything like that. Kinda considering a Glock 21 at this pint but any other suggestions would be nice too. If any get a lot of praise I'll maybe show them to her and see if they appeal to her, but I'd kinda like to keep the fact that I'm actually purchasing one for her a surprise if I am waiting for the holidays.
Any thoughts?
(And no, it's not a straw purchase if it's for immediate family, it'll be okay.)

If you want something a little bigger look into the model s&w500
It's a bit pricey but she won't ever have trouble loading it and one shot should take care of anything

that normie meme is cringe as fuck. that stupid picture of the smiling 50s guy saying that has been going around the internet for over a decade and normies think its so funny

Women are pretty bad with firearms in general, don't get the dumb cunt one, she'll probably just shoot herself

Get her a HK usp45.

Get lost clown shit.
OP if your mom can handle .357 I think a .45 is good to go.

All the memes are shit in this thread, for OP I was gonna say if your nana liked and might miss her .32 revolver than maybe find another one in .32 magnum ot .327 magnum as a step up in power if normal .32 is too piddly. But if she can handle a .357 then she can handle a .45, meme calibres are fun though if impractical imo.

To fit in with the criteria, a Hi-power. It's an old classic, It has a safety. There are Mec-Gar 15 round magazines for 16 total. 9mm out of a steel gun should be pretty easy for an old lady to shoot.

OP here, that's an option I suppose but I'd kinda rather get her a full-size semiauto. Something that's mainly for home defense but just small enough that she could wear it or carry it in her car or purse if the need arises, and has more than 6 shots.
>>29845723
Always a valid option.

Old ladies have been known to limp wrist things. I would respectfully suggest a revolver.
>>
If your mom doesn't have experience with guns and she won't practice with it much, make sure it's double action only

Get her a commander 1911
