I like my 457's too , I have 3 of them . My wife sounds about the same size as that girl and she shoots my 457 as well as my 845 and 945 . She's been around guns most of her life and isn't intimidated by them . Her favorite though is her 3913LS worked over by BMCM . I really need to send him her 3914LS also , but I understand he's busier than all get out . That's what happens when you do excellent work and treat people right .
