@nyokki: has he used "as reasonable as a bag of rabid chihuahuas"? @Phyreblade: yeah, my pinky ended up curled under the magazine, and that lip at the bottom got in the way of ring finger...not very confident for a grip.

@Phyreblade: Hubby uses it all the time, along w/ ...has the flightpath of a homesick rock and dumber than a bag of rocks. There's prolly more, I just can't think of 'em.

@SumoSnipe: Yeah, I’ve played with one, they seem to be designed for portability and stealth more than anything else, and don’t exactly fill your hand like a 1911 or anything…

The only reason that it holds a special spot for me is because it’s the 00 agents standard issue… It certainly wouldn’t be my first pick if given a choice…

@nyokki: A *dead* eagle…? LOL haven’t heard that one before..

@SumoSnipe: My SIL a NYPD and she let me shoot her 38 revolver (target practice) and my fingers weren't long enough to pull the trigger. I ended using a 383 (?). I have an eye like a dead eagle...as it turns out. ;<)

@Karatesaurus Rex: I have a 51 navy... It is so fun to set targets on fire while punching near 1/2 inch holes through em.....
