My GF took a job downtown Detroit....the first thing we did was get her a CCW permit and a handgun.

She decided, wisely I might add, on the SigSauer 380ACP. It's small enough to conceal in a small handbag, yet still has enough power to get the job done.

Sig's are a little pricey......but when you need it does the price really matter?
