Go rent the gun before you buy it. That way you are only out a few bucks, rather than spend several hundred and be stuck with it.

This! I've bought a few handguns that I was sure I'd like based on my research, only to find they were not at all my cup of tea. The worst was a Glock G36; the reports I read indicated that the recoil was stout, but not too serious. Well, after one magazine through that pistol, my hand felt like someone had smacked my open palm with a length of 2x4. I sold it soon afterward.

Back in the day you just bought'm and learned how to shoot'm. We didn't worry about it. The only thing you mighta done is put a different set of grips on. Now days people overthink things way too much.

I think that is it, since some one mentioned it to me I started to second guess myself. This is how I have rolled look at it online, then buy it and I haven't been upset with any of them, the only gun I have gotten and hated was a p22 but I wasn't in the market for one it fell into my lap in a trade.
