Handgun Speed Dating
As the leading women’s 2A organization in Delaware, we get asked all the time, “What gun is best for me?”
There isn’t a simple answer for this FAQ. You have to take into consideration a person’s hand size, grip strength, finger length, vision issues, and any bone/muscular/nerve disorders that may impact their ability to adequately operate a pistol. It’s a very personal choice, one that can be impacted by something as simple as how much effort it takes to press the trigger. Choosing can be especially difficult when trying to find the one firearm that can be used comfortably for home defense, carry, and training.
Since this wasn’t a question we could answer very well without being in person….
