Re your # 96... I like a pump shotgun also but it won't fit in my purse!

So true!!!

But if self defence "on the go" is your theme, carrying in a purse is ill advized....easy to snatch with gun maybe used against you...

Better a fitted body holster for easy access. In that case a small auto loader with large bore. Many ladies go this route but it should all be accomplished under very competent instruction ....Purchase of gun, holster, firing range and self defence training.

The NRA is women friendly...Give them a call...Most are Nice, educated, sensible people who will steer you in the right direction.

Good luck!

The NRA has a new magazine for women. It's called Woman's Outlook. I haven't seen it but it's supposed to be out already. It can be requested as their official magazine.
