I'm trying to pick out a low recoil gun for the wife. most 9mm guns are locked breech while most 380s are blowback. because the 380s are blowback, do you think they are equal or perhaps even stronger (recoil wise) than a 9mm? I have never shot a 380, but have a 9mm. the wife does not like the recoil of the 9mm. she can't hit anything past 10 feet.
or would a compensated 9mm (glock 17c) be good for her? would a compensated 9mm be better than a 380? or should I drop to a 32 auto?
