It is much easier to shoot a gun that fits your hands.

I've been shooting my 10 inch S&W 460 mag for a couple years; sure like the quarter size holes it burns through 3/8 steel pipe and the fact that I can hit a 12 inch target about every third time at 3-4 hundred yards, open sights on sand bags.
I've seen a couple women shoot it with 395 grain corbons too.

Yup. When we switched over from the SW .38 to the Beretta 9mm, I too got “bit” a couple times. If your smart, thats about all it takes to figure it out. That slide is a moving component on that firearm, just like the fan belt on a car. Keep your appendages away from it.

..same with a shotgun...the rifleman has his sights...the shotgunner’s sight is the fit of his stock...a gun that naturally mounts properly means less crippled birds...and that makes you a better sportsman.

I bought a .32 Beretta Tomcat for the Missus. First time I shot it it put a nice pair red railroad tracks on the web of my hand. Ow!
Seemed like a good idea for her since she has a hard time racking slides. I'll stick with my J-Frame.
This is now a gun porn thread!

Vince Edwards shoots at my local range in NE Florida, where he is a safety officer during IDPA events. A friendlier, nicer, funnier guy you will never meet in your life.

I am a .500 S&W man. The .500 has a small comfortable grip and it can kill anything in North America, including boredom. One more thing the weight of the revolver, plus the magnaports, result in a recoil that is far less than a .44 Special Bulldog. I was pissed at S&W when they sold out to the socialist anti-gun British, but they are now a U.S. company and all is forgiven.

I came back to S&W when they came back home too...
