Glock
4.6
(73)
"Mine was a Glock 17. Great overall pistol."
"Dude. 43x MOS. Get it"
"Glock 19. Good first gun. Good last gun. Cool for a new guy and cool for a veteran."
"A first time gun owner small lady loves her 43x and she's shooting great with it."
"Glock 43x good place to start."
"I would have her try a glock 43x or p365 X or macro"
"Get a Glock. Easy to clean and fire."
"The answer here is always Glock19."
"I came here to say Glock 19 so I am going to say Glock 19."
"If you want to conceal, and double down as a home defense can't go wrong with a Glock 19."

Smith & Wesson
4.5
(27)
"I’d go for the S&W shield plus. 10 rounds in the mag but the same size as a Glock 43."
"Smith and wesson FPC is a great rifle that can fold in half."
"S&W FPC, it folds in half so it's very compact."
"I carry a M&P Shield Plus and it’s the same size but shoots much better imo."
"S&W Shield EZ .380 ACP. Easiest pistol to rack on the market."
"Smith and Wesson Bodyguard 2.0 in 380. Its the most popular EDC of the year for good reason."
"I can't recommend a revolver high enough!"
"Smith and Wesson shield EZ In 380 would be my recommendation."
"Like previous mentions, the S&W Bodyguard 2.0 is *that* pistol right now."
"Do yourself a favor and get S&W shield 4 in or 2.0 compact."

CZ
4.4
(18)
"CZ P10C, P10F, P10S. All tried true and tested. All can be had for under $350."
"CZ P-10s for carry and a shotgun for the house."
"CZ p-10 is just the best under $400."
"CZ P10C."
"I just came here to say cz p10c."
"CZ is the answer for all bang-for-your-buck firearm needs."
"Cz p10c, was skeptical at first but got mine as my first handgun."
"You can get the optics ready variant of either one under $400. The trigger is one of the best out of the box triggers on a striker fired pistol anywhere near its price point."
"CZ p10s or P10C"
"Czp10c."
#4
Ruger
4.3
(12)
"You’re probably best off with a 22 rifle. Maybe something like a Ruger 10/22."
"Ruger 10/22. It's lightweight, customizable, affordable, and easy to shoot."
"A rifle like a Ruger 10/22 would be ideal. .22lr has very low recoil."
"Take that new Ruger RXM for a spin if you want something G19 sized."
"The Savage Axis ll and the Ruger American seem to be very popular entry level rifles."
"I’m gonna say a Ruger Mk IV 22/45. Get one of the “Lite” ones with a threaded barrel."
"My two recommendations are the Ruger Security 380 and a 1911 in 9mm."
"The Ruger Security 380 is a decent size and has, probably, the easiest slide I’ve ever felt."
"Some standouts are the Ruger LCR, the Keltec P32, the Sig P365, the Glock 42, and the 22TUC."
"I recommend starting with a Ruger 10/22 as it’s a semi-auto."
#5
Sig
4.9
(9)
"I’ve been caring for a couple decades and have settled on the Sig P365 with an optic."
"? Sig P365 Fuse. I like mine."
"A Sig p238 is a good option to try for someone with small hands."
"P365 always gets my recommendation."
"But I would guess the sig p365 is going to be the way to go."
"Sig P365 XMacro or Glock 19. Both are excellent reliable workhorses."
"Go with P365XL/Macro/Fuse or Glock 48."
"Any p365 variant, I own a Glock 19 but I choose to carry my 365."
"Sig P938."
#6
FN
4.2
(9)

"I find that with my little sausage fingers it's easier to reach the slide release on the FN509."
"FN 509 is my carry. It's a great gun out of the box."
"I'd go that way but it really boils down to what fits YOU best."
"My best friend has the 509 and loves it."
"I'm saying FN509."
