*EDIT*: Holy cow my grammar is horrible.

My father purchased a lady smith revolver for my mom. However, she did not have enough strength to pull the trigger (until we got a trigger job), and the recoil on a snubbie is pretty stout. Thus, my mom almost never shoots the lady smith. For these reasons, I have not considered a revolver for my lady friend. I do like snubbies, though. (That Ruger LCR looks pretty awesome).

I understand simplicity of operation is one of the big things revolvers have going for them. What were your thought processes in buying her a .357, Slims?
