Maybe, but I'm finding it really hard to believe the recoil was as punishing as he says it is.
The review comes across like Leghorn wanted to ding the gun. Whether this was because TTAG was honked off at not having been invited to shoot it originally, or because they think that picking a few guns to review negatively will get them a reputation for "telling it like it is" or something else I don't know. But I'll judge this thing for myself when it comes out.
There you go....anyone's evaluation is just opinion until you shoot it yerself. I was simply saying that as far as the TTAG reviews I have read about guns I have actually shot and owned (a few of them actually) I agreed with them in principle. I do think the review sounds as if he is unfairly dinging the gun as well. But overall I don't think the TTAG reviews are usually completely off base, biased, and worthless. This could be the first one...
Then again I shot the Ruger LCP and found it extremely snappy. My Wife found it too snappy and several members of our support group found it unacceptable/unmanageable as well. They are a very popular and well made piece and have sold a lot of guns and been reviewed as being decent. I have drawn some pretty pointed and nasty criticism for stating my findings...controllability and all that as well as perceived recoil is a highly variable thing. This is why we need a lot of guns and new ideas to be continually developed and put to market.
One size does not and will not likely ever fit all.
