*Glock G45
*Glock G48 slimline
*Walther PPQ M2
*Baretta 92x

the only ones I was able to hold were the S&W M&P 2.0, Walther PPQ, Glock G19. Both the G19 and Walther are doublestacks and that is one aspect I was wanting to get away from.

The G48 is also double stack, but done in a way to make the gun slimmer overall. No one had that model on hand

The S&W M&P 2.0 "shield" is a single stack; it fit my hand better and Yvonne was more comfortable with it.
Good points. I'm a slab side person; probably why I'm not a big Glock fan. Going back to my XD-40, that thing is thin. May also be why it's a bit of a pain to shoot well. The PPQ is not thin, but fits well in my wife's hand. Gonna be hard at this time to really give you a solid recommendation, as I'm a huge fan of trying a firearm out before purchase. Let us know how it goes. Thinking about going to the range tomorrow to dust off the rust.
