I am a novice when it comes to handguns. I do own a 1911, and I do love it. This weekend, I got to hold a Hi-point handgun for the first time. Maybe it is just me, but it feels like all of the weight of this gun (9mm) is along the slide. I also checked on a Taurus 9mm, and in contrast, the weight felt like it was along the grip, settling it right into my hand.
Beyond comfort, can anyone give me pros/cons to the feel of each? I would think that horizontal weight would make it harder to keep on target. Then again, I could see how enough of it could help balance to gun.
