Hi,
I've shot 1911's and numerous S&W K/L frames, and I thought those fit my hands alright, until I got my Makarov. Yes, the Mak is a small 380-size pistol, but I can wrap my hand around the grip good and tight easily. I can shoot it one handed with confidence. I can grab it and make minor adjustment to my grip quickly. I think what I've learned is small grip gives me awesome control. I shoot the best with my Mak. Eventhough I can reach the trigger on my 1911 comfortably, I always felt something wasn't quite right. I know now that my hand just isn't big enough to wrap around the 1911 grip confidently. My S&W K/L frame revolvers have small grip, but the trigger reach is a problem. So I always find my hand slid over to reach the trigger; hence, always having to correct my grip to maintain control when shooting hot rounds. While the 1911 and K/L frames are alright for plicking, I find I need better control for running-n-gunning games. So, I'm basically looking for a auto/revolver for IDPA. It has to be 10-round 9mm Luger or 6-round 38spl+p, and it has to have a Makarov/PPK/Bersa/SP101size grip for my small hands. What is this gun? Thanks.
