Size Matters
Too much or too little gun can be a problem.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

Bought a ruger lcp and while I like the gun, my hand is big enough that I can barely make the trigger work the firing pin. So far have just been dry firing the thing, but the distance I am displacing the front sight getting the trigger to release has me a little concerned. It might be “too small” for me. +P loads should reduce the richocet effect, so I doubt it is “too small” in that respect.

I really don’t get Americans in their weapon selection.
For some reason people want great big rifles and tiny handguns. I don’t get it.
Big handguns give you ease of manipulation, longer sight radius, and a much smaller chance of inducing malfunctions from postions of distress (like getting your ass kicked in the Walmart parking lot).
Not-so-goofy-big rifles give you ease of manipulation, reduced weight in carrying, faster on target (especially in snap shots), and general utilitarian handling.
