Just so you know, it's illegal to purchase a gun for someone else. It's called a straw purchase, and the chance of someone here selling you a gun with those intentions is slim to none. Just FYI
this x2
thanks for your input guys... i am very aware of the straw purchase but as i said she already has guns. she is not very internet friendly. i was doing this for her. she has guns for the trade and money for the purchase.
He can buy and gift it to anyone he pleases...
This^^^. I wish I had one to donate! My grandmother had a .32 revolver. I'm not sure which relative got it since they were like vultures and didn't tell anyone who got what..
I've been having a group of Senior ladies coming out for classes recently.
Their ages range from the mid 60's to late 70's.
They have brought all kinds of guns to class but most of them really like the Ruger LCR .38 & several have went out & bought one for themselves after trying mine.
The thick recoil taming rubber grip & the lighter than normal trigger for a revolver really helps users w/ mild hand strength issues.
A couple have even bought the LCR .22 to practice with in addition to the .38.
It is identical in operation & allows easier & longer practice sessions when alternated w/ the larger gun.
All of the repetitions & muscle memory they gain on the smaller gun transfers over to the bigger one for increased proficiency.

i have the taurus ultralite .38 spl but she hates it. its too much for her. she wants my walther p22 but i cant seem to let it go.... i guess i need to get another one for her. thanks for the support some people just dont understand the laws. a straw purchase is for someone buying for someone ineligible for having a firearm (felon and etc....) in georgia you can gift and purchase guns legally for a legal carrier. just for facts. i work at a gun shop. so yeah i kind of know the laws....
I have one lady who the .38 was too much for her so the descending power ladder we are trying are as follows:
Ultralite .38
All steel 2" .38
All steel 4" .357 mag. revolver loaded w/ .38's
.32 h&r mag. revolver
.22 mag. revolver
Some of which aren't my favorite but as the legendary J. Cooper said, "Carry (or use) the biggest caliber that you will carry & can hit with."
