Ask my husband he can tell you what it feels like. And you shoulda seen his face. But it was only a 12 gauge. No pumping required.

Generally speaking ladies are much better served by small revolvers. Smith & Wesson makes a very nice line of .38 special, .32 magnum, and .357 magnum revolvers with lightweight aluminum or Scandium/Titanium frames.
Generally speaking knowledgeable people don't like to trust their lives to .22 and .25 caliber handguns, because they aren't very powerful. They can be lethal, sure, but there is more to it than that.
Defenders want their assailants to cease assailing, not to die of infection 4 to 10 days after the confrontation.
Revolvers don't jam and there are no complicated controls for slide release, magazine release, plus anywhere from one to four safeties.
The safety on a revolver is simply the long, stiff trigger pull. They are simple and easy to operate.
In the average defensive situation the defender fires two shots, so you don't need some Glock or Beretta that holds 15 to 21 rounds of ammunition.
At the end of the day the choice is all about what you are comfortable with, and what you can shoot accurately. The most powerful handgun in the world does you no good if you can't hit what you're aimin' at!

Gotta run, but bumping this post.
Thanks, Op_Carl!

I've had some really perfect shots in the past.
My husband loves his 270 deer rifle.
