Help my wife pick a gun (9mm).

Yes this is definitely the correct answer, however it will be tough to actually try every gun under consideration which is why I came here to glean as much opinion as I can. Thanks for the input everyone though, I really appreciate it, it has confirmed that we are on the right track.

She did look at at a Sig 226, apparently it didn't stand out and it a bit pricey if I remember correctly.

It's really not about looks, or weight it's about how she shoots the damn thing, also make sure she uses the correct grip when trying these guns out.

Nothing beats personal experience; the old adage of if the glove fits, wear it still prevails.

OP: List your location, you'll be surprise how many local shooters will offer assistance. I shoot at POCO, on weekends most pistols show up throughout the day, ask nicely, bring your own factory ammo, tried them all.

You shoot at Burke on weekends? You one of the army veteran bikers?
I'm there once or twice a month with the wife on Saturday mornings.

My apologies for not being clear, when I said "look" I meant she held it(properly) and cycled the action and whatnot, it just didn't stand out to her. I personally like the Sigs lot.
