That is a good choice for a gun down here. The short barrel is great when the perpetrator reaches to take it from her. When fired it will remove its hand. Also practice, practice, practice.
I bought my wife a 357 mag 4" barrel medium frame, added Pachmayr grips and she loves it. I load it down lighter for plinking, 110 gr bullet, a dash of Bullseye. (according to Speer reloading manual) Great for shooting a 100 rounds without making her hand sore. I also seldom have her shoot at a stationary target. Just throw out a can at about 25 yards and have her chase it around with the shots. If you have a place to do this.
A retired police officer friend of ours just picked up a Walther P99, and likes it, but wishes she didn't get rid of her 357 Smith 4" barrel. Don't remember the model she had.
