Just bought a brand new Ruger Mark III

Could a woman use that kind of gun? Is it easy to use, clean, take care of??

A woman can use any gun a man can.
In most cases, women are better shots than men.

Most of us old sexists blame this on one Phoebe Ann Moses.
it all started when she out shot Frank Butler in a shooting contest in Cincinnati back around 1875. It’s been downhill for us since.

Sure, very easy gun to use. It’s not the easiest gun to dissassemble for complete cleaning.

Look into the Ruger SR22 if you want somehting reliable, easy to disassemble, clean, and reassemble, which will eat any .22lr ammo you feed it, will take a suppressor (with threaded barrel version) and has virtually no recoil and can be easily carried in a purse. The magazines can be outfitted to hold 13 rounds, and the action is single or double, so you can carry it with a round in the chamber, safely. HAving shot lots of .22lr pistols, I consider the SR22 to be the absolute, bar none, best of the lot.

Yes a woman can use that kind of gun easily. Disassembly is a little daunting. Reassembly . . . well mine is on the table now . . all put together except for the mainspring housing latch. The last part. It’s like a Rubiks cube. But I’ll get it.

There's virtually no kickback . . . light . . . grips well . . . supposed to be rather difficult to take apart and reassemble though.
