Like ANY pistol, grip and hand-feel are very important. For me, I ditto laphound " I really do like is the grip angle. Very natural pointer for me, dead on target"....
but grip is an individual thing.
As with any gun, it's important to see-one, hold-one and preferably shoot-one. Again, I feel the Cougar is one of the BEST pistola values in that less than $400 range... a dead-on shooter, great quality and built like a tank!
