Best Concealed Carry Handguns for Women 2022
Best Concealed Carry Handguns for Women 2022
So, I have been asked over
and over by many women that attend my Concealed Carry Classes both in Texas and
Oklahoma, what do I think is the best concealed handgun for women, and my reply
has always been the same. Whatever you feel most comfortable shooting and
conceal carrying. Given that here are Best Concealed Carry Handguns for Women
2022, wife and daughter approved.
Now after many years, training and purchasing many different
handguns for my wife and my daughters. I
have come up with ten that my daughters, my wife, and I like. So, take my
opinions with a grain of salt. In the end you will be the one shooting and
carrying the firearm.
Keep in
mind I am not going to say which one gun is better then the other. These are
just 10 handguns that work well. In the end, one of these might be better for
you than the other.
I did
throw a revolver in the list because like My great grandfather taught me, “Less
mechanical parts make it less likely to malfunction.” This quote from a man
that was raised during the depression and didn’t use a tractor till the 90s.
Handguns
are a great way to defend yourself. And with so many different types of
handguns on the market, it can be hard for someone who’s new at shooting them
all decide which one is right for you! I’ve put together this guide showing
some popular options that will help narrow down your choices and make finding
The One easier than ever before – without breaking any bank or commitments in
training classes (or else).
So, like
with many blogs, the writer pulls you in with the importance of this and that.
Like concealed handguns how they are important to women, blah blah, blah. I’m
not going to do that right off the bat. I assume you are grown and have already
done some research and training etc. I am not affiliated with any of the guns
nor companies that sell them, que the no links to purchase, so refreshing.
I do offer the License to Carry Texas
Online Class for Texas Concealed Carry
and in person concealed carry classes in Oklahoma. You can find more info
towards the bottom of the page after the gun list. That’s my rant so enjoy the
list and hope it helps you.
Glock 43 - A
Practical All-Rounder
The Glock
is a well-known, high-quality handgun that can be used by many people for long
periods of time without any complaints. The only thing holding back this gun
from being perfect would have to do with aesthetics because some users may not
want the handlebars on their weapon as big and flashy looking which was why we
added “depending upon your personal preference” at beginning statement about
whether they should go partially or fully revealed when firing rounds out
respectively.
The gun is easy to shoot, has light
recoil and can be aimed easily. It’s not as powerful or accurate compared with
other guns in its class but this could make it better suited for beginners who
are just learning how handle firearms safely
The
trigger pull on our test model was quite lightweight which allowed us quick
access into rapid fire mode (if needed). Removal of Magazine Adapters means no
more worries about losing parts during an emergency!
This gun
has a comfortable feel, but it doesn’t provide good handling and can be
difficult to pull for some.
2. Sig Sauer P365
9mm Luger 3.1in Nitron Micro Compact Semi-Automatic Pistol
This polymer, striker-fired 9mm pistol is a favorite of
many concealed carry enthusiasts.
The 2018 Handgun of The Year citation from Shooting Illustrated speaks volumes
about how good it really can be!
Sig Sauer’s P365 is a precision beast with increased recoil
stability. It has been proven to be one of the most accurate concealed carry guns on today’s market – perfect for any shooter who
demands high standards!
The P365 has an extended magazine capacity of 10, 12 or 15
rounds which makes it perfect for target practice and shooting galleries.
The leather-like handle of the P365 feels just right and can be
a great choice for those with small hands. It’s slightly heavier than most
Glocks, weighing in at 17 ounces before ammo or accessories; however, it is
smaller compared to other weapons, so this makes perfect sense as an
excellent concealed carry gun if you’re looking into carrying one everywhere!
The P365’s stainless steel frame and slide, short trigger reset
(which allows for quick shots), non-intrusive iron sights make it an easy
choice when looking to buy your next gun. With the standard weight slightly lessening recoils but some
may still feel a kick in their back because of this design decision; however,
these features are what set them apart from other pistols on today’s market!
Cleaning
and field stripping are a breeze, almost easier to disassemble than the Glock
or S&W thanks to its takedown lever. Regular maintenance means that your
trusty P365 will serve you well for long time! Since this choice among gun enthusiasts
has become so popular aftermarket customization can be found easily on hand
with what’s available nowadays from big name companies like Smith & Wesson
enjoy their newest models in 9mm form factor which also holds true if someone
wants something smaller but just as deadly.
But I’ve seen so many happy, long-time fans of the P365. They
really make you want to try it yourself and let’s be real – at \$500-\$600
dollars for a ‘pro grade’ concealed carry sharpshooter who wouldn’t want their money spent wisely?
3. Smith &
Wesson M&P 9 Shield 9mm Luger
The Smith
& Wesson M&P Shield is an excellent choice for anyone with small hands
looking to carry a stealthy, concealed handgun. It features short trigger pulls
and audible resets which make it comfortable while shooting in quick
succession; its slim design also keeps the gun from being too bulky under your
clothes or inside a holster when compared against other firearms of similar
size (though there are larger models available).

Smith
& Wesson has made the Shield so corrosion resistant that it will never need
to be painted. The polymer frame is robust, but still lightweight at 20 ounces
on average! Many people find this gun comfortable due in part from its
ergonomic design and manageable recoil which can accommodate beginning shooters
as well without compromising accuracy or power level
The
trigger is heavy and won’t reset if you let go of it halfway through your shot.
Additionally, because this gun has a 5-inch front sight radius that’s too
narrow for most people to align properly in order achieve accurate shots
without lining up both eyes on target there can be some difficulties while
using accuracy as their main form off protection
The Smith & Wesson M&P
Shield is a popular choice for those who want to purchase their first handgun
and it’s also easy-to conceal. The highly affordable 9mm costs around $400

their hands without compromising performance when shooting targets at longer
distances or outdoors where there are fewer obstacles between them and whatever
prey might be waiting around each corner!

available on this gun with what feels like an outdated design puts some people

9. Walther PPS M2
Pistol
The
Walther PPS is a great choice for those who want something small and easy to
manage. It’s thin, making it an ideal weapon in tight spaces or if you’re
wearing gloves; the safety can be accessed by both left-handers (who get their
own button) as well righties without any problem at all! Plus, there are loads
of other features – like loaded chamber indicators that show when ready firing
up front before grabbing this little guy out on-site during emergencies…
Walther
went for an ergonomic and comfortable handgun, with a 1-inch width that’s
moderately scored. So, no matter if you have big or small hands this gun won’t
irritate your grip! It weighs 21 ounces which makes it one of the heavier guns
on our list but has very low recoil as well-being 3 inches long from end to
beginning barrel meaning steady shooting all day long.
Walther’s
traditional platform isn’t for everyone. The trigger pull is heavy and bulky,
with 6 lbs. of pressure needed to fire up this handgun musket gun – but if
you’re looking more heavily armed protection then I say go right ahead! It does
have some good features that makes it worth considering though; like how hard
each slide became when pulled back after shooting which made them difficult
(but not impossible) to rack in case something went wrong during combat
situations.
The
Walther PPS is a popular choice for those looking to shoot quickly and
accurately. It features an ergonomic design with push-button magazine release,
and some can be found with laser sights.

also available as 9mm if you find that the recoil proves too stubborn for your
taste!

ounces, features single action trigger but has extra grip safety which reduces
accidental discharge–most would agree these are very stylish guns in satin
silver finish over double diamond checkered grips.
Kimber has designed a compact
frame for the Kimber Pro Carry II that is perfect for concealed carry. The
low-profile iron sights are fun to use, and this handgun offers plenty of grip
with its sweat guards or pinky rest enhancing your shooting experience!
What will
you be carrying? The Kimber Pro Carry II .45 is an
impressive \$500 dollar self-defense choice if you’re looking for a handgun to
keep yourself safe and sound. It has been reported as being quite scary looking
while still kicking like crazy!
