I gotta tell ya, TeamZen. I was stuck carrying one of them Bersa Thunder 380's for a while and I had some misgivings about the calibur. But after carrying it for about 2 month's and a few trips to the range, I put it at the top in terms of accuracy, ease of carry (narrow), and reliability (I dont remember ANY FTF's). The calibur isn't a problem either as long as shot placement is accurate. My x -wife carry's it now and she loves it. Put a hogue on it 4 your wife and she will love it even more. Ya gotta post a pic of your OD green (?) MilPro ;D
