Gun dealers would love for everyone to think you soon won't be able to buy their merchandise. In fact, it's a sales strategy that's been working out well for them since 1968. Fact is, neither party is interested in passing gun control legislation anytime in the foreseeable future. Executive order? Not a chance; it would be a disaster for his party in 2014.
As for a self-defense handgun for your betrothed, it is hard to improve on a double-action .38 Special revolver. Reliable, simple to use, and quite lethal when loaded with +P ammo. She can learn to shoot accurately with target wadcutter loads, then work up to +P ammo. My personal recommendation, and the gun I bought for my wife, is the Smith & Wesson 642 Airweight.
.380? The guns are highly concealable, but the blowback actions on most .380 autos are stiff and most women have a hard time racking the slide on them.

.357? Very few shooters can handle the .357 Magnum in a gun that's small enough to fit in a lady's purse.
.38 Special +P is comparable to 9mm in terms of lethality; a good compromise between .380 and .357 Magnum.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power.
