She can shoot a small frame .22 fairly well, so that might be the best that he can do for her. I know I would rather have a .22 than nothing, and in some cases I might prefer it over something larger.

Not everyone is cut-out for gun carrying/shooting. She just may be one of those people. She mat be better off with pepper spray or something similar.
