You make a good point. I guess it depends on the relationship you have with you spouse. My wife didn't mind at all that I found this for her. Actually, I was trying to get her back into shooting more regularly with something she would like. She's not up on the firearms like I am. She struggles racking the slide and has a weak trigger finger. Both issues now resolved with the little Walther ccp. The pk380 is even easier to rack but I know she likes the 9mm. I ended up getting it as a b-day gift for her. Yeah I know - could be a "we" gift.

PS I should add I always try to get her involved to pick it out - whatever it is. Last 2 cars we purchased she told me to pick and she test drove them to see if she could handle them. Only requirement - as long as we can pay for them without eating beans.
