New Women's Shotgun: Syren XLR5 Waterfowler

At $1995, the XLR5 is something of an investment piece, but here's what makes it special: The Monte Carlo comb, shorter length of pull, adjusted cast and pitch, and smaller radius in the grip make it a custom gun for her. It's gas operated, so it kicks less, and at 7 pounds 6 ounces, its weight is very manageable—even for those of us with spaghetti arms. Wrap them around this shotgun, and I guarantee you'll be taken seriously in the blind.
