I would have no problem recommending one to others, way above a Kel-Tec, unless you're real cash strapped or want a gun you can put in your wallet. Kel-Tec has several very small 32 caliber autos, though I've never been a fan of the 32 myself.
I understand. And many swear by their Kahrs. But from my own experience with multiple Kahrs, I'll pass. I need something solid, proven, and reliable. Kahr's been a roulette table of quality for me.

The good things I can saw about Kahrs are that they're super-concealable and they shot true (when they didn't jam).

Were you using reloads? Kahr doesn't promise reliability with them.

Between the trigger mechanism being beside the offset barrel - not under it, and Kahr parts being precision computer machined tighter than any handgun I know of: finding the right load is key. Understandable that some people wouldn't want a picky gun for CC.

I like the Winchester Ranger Talon line- 127 gr. +p for P9/K9 and 155 gr. for P40/K40.

My recommendation is for a Glock Model 26 (9MM)

Take her to a place that has a selection of various firearm to rent and shoot, (Pistols & Revolvers) and try out some of the ones mentioned here and see which one she likes and can handle. Which one she shoots the best with.

Have her try the Glock Model 27 (.40), if she does alright with it, buy it instead of the model 26
