My other half doesn't carry - his choice. When I purse carry, its a 686+ 2 1/2" & when I on-body carry, its a Springfield XD9 subcompact.
My wife CC a Kal-Tec 380 at my request since she drives a BMW 325i.
Too many car jacking's around here lately it seems and I have it that the doors lock when put into moving.
80 and disabled does make her a target I think.

She's no gun hobbyist, but is enthused to carry and open to the notion of needed practice on occasion. She's a runt who used to like to tote a 1911 gun. Now she carries this Model 642 configured so and with +P 158 grain ammo. She most often carries in her purse (even back when she toted the .45 automatic) and I don't like that, but don't have much influence there.

My 60+ better half carries a G19 OWB or belly band. She's a lefty, and kind of sinister. On the farm we went for almost nightly walks and worked I out our defensive positions. That was pretty easy, we walk so we can hold hands and still have our strong side free!

She carries a Shield 9 or Walther PPS M2. I wouldn't want to face her, she's a crack shot!
My wife does not carry, but she does keep a Sig P320 compact in the car.
I sent her to a gun store that I trust and told her to go shopping. I did not make any suggestions as I wanted her to buy something she liked, not what I like.

My wife will have nothing to do with it?
Almost had her convinced once but she never went through with it to get her permit. I wanted her to at least do that in case anything ever happened to me so that she could legally carry what I had!

My wife has recently started carrying more often. She carries a S&W 642 38+p with crimson laser grip. She carries appendix in Remora holster currently and just before heading off to deer camp, she was on line to order a belly band. She also purse carries a litte bit. But really need a better holster for lurse carry than the uncle mikes she has.
I am seeiously thinking of getting her a concealment express j-frame tuckable holster as well.
She has a safari speed loader and I think we will order a speed strip or two and see how she likes them. As it is difficult to hid a traditional speed loader in the pocket of her jeans!

Depends on the weather and daily attire. Mostly a Sig P938, but sometimes a M&P9c or a Springfield 1911 in 45ACP. She is usually in the top 3 shooters at our Bullseye competition with her 45 and a Gunsite graduate. She out shoots me most of the time.

My wife CCs a 9mm Shield w/ the safety. She's shot quite a few different models and likes full size 1911s and the Shield. Not shocking that most people without huge mitts prefer single stacks.

After elbow surgery, I decided I needed a new, lightweight gun. My wife told me I'd have to get rid of a gun to get another one. I took my 4 inch Model 629 to the gun show and made a swap with quite a bit of boot for me for a Taurus 85SSUL2 (since loaned to my older daughter). When I got home I showed her my new little stainless-looking gun. She asked, "What did you trade for it?"
"Well," says I, "I traded off the 629 and got this little gun and a bit of money."
"Don't throw numbers at me," she says. "Which gun was it you traded off?"
"The big 4 inch stainless .44 revolver," I replied, thankful she didn't ask how much money.
"You traded off MY GUN?" she almost shouted. (Ladies never shout. They just speak emphatically.)
"Huh?" (It was the best I could do.)
"That was the gun I kept loaded on the nightstand when you were gone nights," she said accusingly. "It was loaded with those special (.44 Special) bullets."
Knowing where this was going, I laid out all my revolvers on the bed for her to pick a replacement. When she got to the S&W Model 681 that I'd just put Crimson Trace grips on, she said, "This looks pretty close to what I had."
I picked it up and the laser came on. She said, "Thanks," and I haven't held it since. So, my wife's "little gun" is a 4 inch L-frame service revolver with Crimson Trace grips loaded with +P .38's.

SHE DOESN'T HAVE A CCL
That won't stop her from packing (my idea) a 38 snub of one kind or another if going somewhere alone at night, (or if home alone while I'm away) which I strongly try and advise her NOT TO DO but you know how that goes. Over the years I've bought her many handguns/rifles/shotguns and being the gentleman I am I always take good care of them for her. Some she has even shot.

SMART! I remember a story about a couple who were killed because the wife had a death grip (in panic) on his strong side hand, and he couldn't get it free to draw before both were shot and killed. Changed my whole view of holding hands while walking.
