Nothing I own is a good fit for this, except the .22 conversion on the 1911, which is how I plan to start her back. Just hoping you guys and gals would have some specific suggestions on very mild recoiling guns.
Thanks!

The problem with most larger, heavier .380s is they use a direct blowback action that delivers substantial felt recoil to the shooter's hands compared to a similar size & caliber in a locked breech short recoil design. This is why JMB designed locked breech ... recoil pressures of a .45 ACP would crack the frame of direct blowback handgun.flechero wrote:I was thinking that one of the "heavier" .380's might be the ticket
Isn't a .22 round too low a caliber for the range test at CHL class in Texas?Desert Eagle with a .22 conversion kit.

.32 is the smallest allowed.RPB wrote:yuprdcrags wrote:Isn't a .22 round too low a caliber for the range test at CHL class in Texas?Desert Eagle with a .22 conversion kit.
.380 or above to qualify I thought
+1 on the Sig P-238. I bought one for my wife. She's sitting right here next to me right now, and I asked her how she would rate the recoil. She said very light. She's shot my 45's and a 357 snub nose loaded with 38 special.Pawpaw wrote:The Sig P238 is very light, but has very, very mild recoil.
