.380 vs 9mm
Don't fret so much. Get a flat hard surface & stand all of them up on it. I use an old plastic cafeteria tray. With them all standing up the tall ones are 9 and the short ones are .380. Mom & wife shoot the .380 & I give away most of the 9mm. I too load .45 for me.

Tarus
Excellent choice. My mother carried a Tarus revolver until she converted to simi. At 74 the recoil was getting to bruise her hand. She loves her Sig. 232 now.

Excelent choice. My wife & Mother both have one & love them. Accuracy is excellent. My wife shot a 246 her first time to qualify for her CHL.
