P.S.>> get two so she can fire the first one to get a feeling where it hits.

I actually bought 3 Kimber pepper guns for my youngest Daughter, when she was commuting to a big city for work.
She practiced with the 1st gun, shooting it at a big cardboard box @ 10', so she could see exactly the POI, and how it felt/etc.
She carried the 2nd, and kept the 3rd in reserve, for the next time she went out after when/if she had to use the carry spray gun.
Once she got her CCW permit, she picked out a sweet 3" S&W M-37 Airweight to CCW instead.
AFAIK, she still keeps the 2 Kimber pepper guns stashed in different places around her home.
( I taught all my 3 of children to shoot @ about 10 y.o., and two of them, including this daughter, are members of gun clubs other than mine, near their homes)
