.32 Vs 9mm, or ...

I'm hoping to start shooting again. My new girl friend, and the owner of the SCCA CS Miata that I co-drive/race, likes shooting and wants me to take her out to the range. She has a 357 Ruger.
I use to have a Les Baer Bullseye .45, a Pardini .32 and Pardini .22
I did my own loading. The .32 target round was, I believe, never considered the most accurate projectile. Instead of getting another .32, what else is there that is considered competitively accurate. I'm looking for a mild shooting pistol, that we can mount a red dot sight to. I like the fact that I can still see the holes in target with something around .32
Are there competition 9 mm's that shoot target lead?

Lots and lots, in Europe.
But you respectively she
will be happier with a used .38 Special WC pistol, e.g. a S&W Mod. 52.

Forget what she wants ...
I want a Walter SSP in 32 ... but I don't think they make it in .32, correct?

The reports I've seen on the 952 have been very favorable (e.g. 2" at 50yds )

An accurized M9 is another option, and you can shoot these in leg matches.

I would add a STI Targetmaster in 9mm to the list to consider. Quality sights, 6" barrel and slide and good for <3" out of the box. About $1400+/-.
