I'm going to mostly agree, depending on the person. If they're of stout physical character then it might not be the worst choice, if it's what they want.
It really is quite a conundrum to find the right single firearm for people who aren't going to be frequent shooters.
Yep. My wife prefers K-frame and up .357 revolvers, and she does pretty well with them.
I'm waiting for the day some guy behind the counter tries to sell her on a tiny pink pistol. She grew up in NYC and can be a little direct sometimes...

Even knowing my girlfriend liked my revolver, I still grabbed her a Smith SD9VE on a lark thinking she would like it.
We both do not enjoy it. It seems nearly impossible to sell or trade as well. Nothing WRONG with it per se, it works, it's just that I own much nicer and more fun guns to shoot.
I will never make the mistake of buying someone else a gun unless they specifically asked for that model again.

My wife's gun is a S&W 457, which is a somewhat compact lightweight .45 that I had converted from DA to DAO and tuned by the Performance Center a long time ago. Now, I'm pretty sure she would actually enjoy shooting a modern striker-fired 9mm pistol more and perhaps perform better with it. But she likes her gun in its simplicity -- plus it has always been reliable -- so who am I to tell her she has to change?

I was at a store and my wife was looking at guns. Since we got married and her being funsized she wanted a gun she could shoot that wasn't DA/SA. Gun store worker who was derptastic (no shit open carrying with an empty chamber). Anyways the exchange goes like this.
Gunstore Drone: Can I help you Ma'am?
Wife: No thanks just looking at some 9mm guns
Gunstore Drone: What about this (insert tiny 9mm) so you can keep it in your purse, or a revolver if you can't rack the slide?
Wife: I want a full size or compact doublestack I can get a full grip on and I can dress around it or my husband can.
Gunstore Drone: I sell these (some tiny tiffany blue gun) to women all the time and you should get one too! Don't look at doublestack guns they're had to conceal.
Wife: Do I look like a hooker?
Gunstore Drone: ....
Wife: Then stop recommending hooker guns to me! I told you what options I'm considering.
Well, no. She made him trade the old gun in each time. They've been married for a long time and she didn't just fall off of the turnip truck.

Ha! He should be grateful that he was blessed with a patient and forgiving wifeWell, no. She made him trade the old gun in each time. They've been married for a long time and she didn't just fall off of the turnip truck.

The post about the primers epoxied into the tips of hollow points reminds me of a guy who told me he only carried the Evil, Nuclear Tipped Black Talon round that was designed to EXPLODE on impact
