Offered in both Mossberg 500 and Remington 870.

Not exactly a friendly gun to shoot but it does the job.
Looks about ten inches - maybe 12 - illegal in my state the last time I checked - I'm not necessarily up on changes to those laws tho. But, I think of 18" as the legal limit.

Purty tho. I'd like to try one. Can't say I'd suggest it for a woman.

I tend to suggest people buy the kinds of guns that are relatively inexpensive, commonly available, easy to shoot, and easy to explain if you ever have to use it.

I actually like a ruger 10/22 for a woman - hollowpoints in the standard 10 round mag sitting in a drawer, the gun in the closet. Extremely easy to load and chamber, very little kick, nothing to make her nervous; cheap, fun, multipurpose, and despite what some argue, effective.
