Short trigger reaches....

[zpo]

I have small hands or short fingers, doesn't matter which. The more I shoot my pistols, the more I want a better grip. Which guns tend to have short trigger reaches? Preferably the inexpensive "value" type guns. I know that I like the SA trigger on my dads Ruger P90, my llama seems alright, but the mag well is kinda long, and my Baby Eagle, great gun, has a mile to get to the DA, but is good on SA(except for the trigger bite). I'm curious about the CZ 75 SA, and the FNP series, but can't fiddle with one till the show at the end of August. Well, I hope that sampling helps, and thanks for any help.

I have small hands/short fingers. here are some I like-
try the springfield XD series, my faves, also very affordable.
1911's with a short trigger, maybe out of your price range, but hey, you can shop...
browning hi power-again, fairly expensive, but there are clones that are affordable.
star BM, a sort of 1911 style pistol in 9mm, surplus, inexpensive, great in the hand.
good luck

A Kahr, particularly one with the Elite trigger, has a fairly short reach.

It's possible to swap out a regular trigger for a short pull model on a 1911 quite easily and inexpensively.

I'd go with a 1911 with flat mainspring housing and short trigger.

+1. About the slimmest auto out there (full size). Maybe a S&W single column 9mm.
