You have "hit the nail on the head", I bought her a DIAMONDBACK, 380.

TAKE IT BACK.
NOW.
DO NOT DELAY.
The Diamondback guns have a serious safety flaw which has resulted in a large number of cracked slides, and according to other FFLs and suppliers at least two people have had their weapons fail catastrophically and feed them the slide. Several ranges in FL and GA have banned the Diamondback alltogether because of this, regarding it as a safety hazard to other shooters and a liability to the range itself. We also hear fairly consistent reports of magazine failures (failure to feed, bad lips, failure to disengage) any one of which can easily get you killed in a defensive situation.
The DB was a neat idea, but the guns themselves are rapidly acquiring a reputation in the shooting community as dangerous and poorly-built.
