Just curious, had you ever shot a handgun before then? When I say it’s easy to shoot I mean compared to my .40s, 357 Magnum, 44 Magnum. It does recoil but it’s very manageable for the size of the cartridge and bullet.
I only weigh 100 pounds.......maybe that had something to do with it
I have shot other handguns since that are way way easier, not a clunky and that you don’t have to wrestle with, but I am not by any means or stretch of the imagination an expert, far from it
I agree, I have the Colt 10mm Delta Elite and the best thing I like about it is I can get my hand around it and control it so well compared to the wider staggered magazine grips like the Beretta and Glock.
The 1911 frame is my favorite of any full size automatics I have ever handled, 101 years and still among the best there is.
