    Which handgun does your wife, fiancée or girlfriend use for a house gun?

    Today I took off the big backstrap from my Glock 41 to return it to issue status so I could see if my fiancée could handle the big 45. She did quite well. I have trained her for a while now but primarily with her Ruger LCR .38 and her S&W 442. I suggested that she use the Big Glock for a house...
