Comfortably, comfortably is the key word there.  :D


The two pistols I actually have fit perfectly though.  A 1911 and a S+W .38 Special Police model.  Though I did put on custom wood grips onto the revolver.

The grip before was so freaking small that the recoil would actually hurt my ring finger from the trigger guard hitting it.

The new Grip on this HK45 should be much more comfortable.

Here are some comments from people who have examined the pistol first hand.

well... if you shoot it well... any handgun with sufficient power and reliability and enough accuracy to shoot even 6" groups and 25 yards is plenty good enough...

5 rounds... 6?  15?  not really that important in a handgun in my opinion... what do you shoot well?

More importantly...  what do you like?  what will you take with you and have pride of ownership in?

Truth be told... from the holster and getting one accurate shot off at one bad guy or two... we are all better off with a single action 1873 Colt type revolver in 44 or 45 or .357... they still hold the record for from the leather to first shot and are still the most natural pointers this side of John Brownings 1911..

myself.. I like the feel and handling and power and accuracy of my cut down 44 mag ruger redhawk... It seems perfect for me..  I can't imagine anyone not likeing it... stainless steel.... stag horn grips... bobbed hammer... nice weight and pointing.. but... oddly...  not that many people agree with me.

They will point out how long it takes me to get off that allways needed 7th shot at the marauding bands of attackers still brave enough to charge after 6 of em have been vaporized by the big 44 250 grain 44 slugs...

They will point out that all the "experts" teaching handgun self defense courses "prove" how worthless it is against paper for "double tapping" and such exercises...  

The 1911 guys will say it is uncontrollable... the plastic gun guys say it doesn't carry enough ammo...

none will tell me tho that if I stand my ground and take my shots accurately that 6 rounds won't do the job in every single street fight that has ever been recorded.   If it gets that weird... why not pull out the pd340 5 shot 12oz 357 or.... run away?  or... reload?  Can't work a jet speedloader?  probly can't reload a mag then either.

But that's for me..  for the military... the HK sounds ideal... a new 1911 might be just as good for the majority tho.

To anyone with a 4th grade education, that means that the factor of concealment does not matter.

Then again, you proved you don't have an education.


The subject of this thread was NOT Concealment.   You brought it up, who is without the "edumacation"?   Take your stupid sarcastic drivel elsewhere.  You bore me.
