@Gun Master:
I'm not a total newbie to firearms in general; I've been shooting trap on a near-weekly basis for over a year and I'm a respectable shot; normally shoot a 23/25 in American Trap from the sixteen yard line behind the trap house, and came in in the top third of competitors of a ten-week, all-abilities-level trap league my club recently hosted. But I'm relatively new to the world of handguns. I have a Remington 1911 R1 that I primarily just use at the range; I may carry it in the future but I'm not carrying it now. I have taken the CHL course and obtained my CHL, but am not currently carrying.
The Mak at the local pawn shop was more of a "hey, that's cool" moment than something I'm dead-set on. I probably won't end up with either a Mak or a CZ in the immediate future; was just asking about it.
I have shot a J-frame, and, candidly, loathed shooting it. Just personal taste. Didn't like the sights, didn't like the recoil, and wasn't very accurate with it at all. Didn't really like shooting a Ruger LCR either. In the handgun world, I've shot best with my 1911 and with a Ruger LC9.
