From my own personal experience it is not a good idea for her to carry a gun for the sake of having one. I know people that carry one because they are business owners and carry a lot of cash on them. But by carring one you can endanger yourself. If someone goes to mug your girlfriend and she pulls out her gun but is not 100% comitted to shooting her attacker they will just grab the gun and shoot her with it. It is easy to say you are comitted but when it comes down to crunch time and she pulls it out will she be able to pull the trigger before her attacker can dissarm her. So I would make sure she feels comitted to shooting someone. They could begin to leave and pull their own on her too, the thing is you don't know the outcome but it could turn out bad without the proper mindset and training
Then again you do not have to agree with me. I just feel when using guns to solve trouble it in the end leads to more trouble.
