Ruger P89 vs P95

[sandbagger]

Can anyone tell me if there is a difference in trigger reach between the P89 & P95. I have small hands and I'm wondering about grip size/trigger reach differences between the two. I can't find a shop that has both in stock for comparison.
Thanks!

The P89 always felt too big for my hands.
I like Ruger guns, but the grip of the autos always felt a tad too big.
The P95 is slimmer, but, initially, it still felt too big.
I decided to buy one anyway.
I had heard many good things about them, and hi-caps are available, and reasonable.
Now, after about 1000 rounds, it feels natural to me.

Keep looking until you can do a side-by-side, and see for yourself.

There is a world of difference between the 89 and 95.

I have a P89 with factory Hogue grips. The P89 fits comfortably in my hands, but then again I can palm a basketball. If the grip was any bigger it would be uncomfortable. I held a P95 with slip on Hogue grips a while back, the grip did seem a little smaller, but enough to make a difference, I don't know. What stood out the most to me was the weight difference. I think the P89 is better looking.

I've had both and if you have smaller hands, the P95 is the better choice. The P89 that I had was very chunky in my medium sized hands and the P95 felt really good. I don't know the trigger reach question but the slimmer grips of the P95 will probably let you get more of the trigger than the fatter P89.

If you have REALLY small hands, then most double stack 9mm will be too big (except the Hi Power). If you are limited to 10 rounds (by law) then maybe a single stack 9mm would be better. Try a Kahr 9mm. I know they are more expensive but if you try one, you will probably buy one, they fit small hands great and they are accurate.
