I am with ya. We will absolutely get a holster for purse carry and I am trying to ease her into the idea of carrying on her body, but she is kinda cool to that now. She does have a purse with a perfect zippered side pocket where she currently carries a pepperblaster that the Shield would fit nicely, but I agree that on the body is better. I just have to let her try a few holsters so she will see it is not as bad as she is probably thinking.

The M&P shield is excellent. My wife has agreed to get her CHL and that is the gun I am going to get her as her carry piece. She has already fired it and we both really like it. Very compact, low recoil especially considering it's size and weight, very good accuracy. I can't think of anything negative to say about it. I did momentarily suggest we get another 5.7 but she explained that was not going to work for her due to purse size constraint issues. Apparently the M&P fits just perfect so we will both be happy.
