    Sig P365XL. Just doesn’t fit my hand right, don’t know what it is. Other ‘pocket’ pistols work better for me.
    Get a Wilson Combat grip module .....especially the Macro one..

    In regards to guns..the S&W Sigma and Springfield XD..both are long gone.

    Glock. Oh, how I tried to love Glock too. I tried every frame size available, every caliber and barrel length. Over the years I've owned, then parted with at least ten of them, probably more. Glocks should have been a natural for a DA revolver guy.

    Alas, it was not meant to be.

    The only problem is the P7 is still the most accurate handgun of that size that I've ever fired. Carries nice and flat and the cocked / uncocked in a second is a damn dream feature. It remains my second favorite handgun of all time.

    Never was able to love, didn't want to love...but I have learned to get along with my G19.

    That's somewhat my feeling on glock. I used to almost love them. But there's nothing else good out there that would get me to change over.

    I wanted the Hudson gun to be it, but no luck.

    Every SIG Sauer pistol I’ve ever owned. I want to like them but I just don’t.

    Ausie issued AUG, only bullpup I’ve ever shot that I can remember and I really couldn’t get used to the trigger. You pull it back half way for SA and all the way back for FA, no selector switch.

    There is nothing to hate about them. People cry about the grip angle but honestly it's the same as the Luger. I grew up shooting Lugers and 1911 and not once did it occur to me that shooting one made me unable to shoot the other. People who need 1911 grips on their Glocks and Beretta's just baffle me. I can understand people who have a preference but if you are unable to shoot Glocks, Revolvers or Beretta's then you really can't shoot at all.

    Only reason Glock isn't top of my carry list is because I shoot my Sig P226, HK P7, HK USP and HK P30 more effectively. Part of it is undoubtedly growing up on SA/DA triggers and the glock trigger w/ safety is a small stumble block for me. I'm also not wild about the extremely low profile slide stop, there have been times I've missed it which makes me even slower. But if I had to, I could do damn near everything I need to do with a handgun with a G19. One of these days I'll grab myself a Glock 34 because the oversized features work better for me.

    It is hard to rapid double, but I can do semi all day long without accidentally burping one. Aussie F88s have a lot of QC problems compared to Austrian AUGs, but same setup.

    Ya'll have taken this one completely off the rails. P7? AUG? GARAND?

    Oh my......

    If you think the trigger on the AUG is bad, you haven't shot the OEM TAR21 or SCAR triggers. The AUG trigger is actually usable.
