Best Ergonomics

[zorkieo]

Wanted to konw which pistols are known for having really good ergonomics. i hears things about some smith and wesson, and xd pistols, but dont konw enough about it. obviously the word "best" is going to change from person to person, but overall which pistols are best known for ergonomics?

sig's p22X's, 1911's, h&k p2000/P7's, s&w M&P's are the one's that come to mind.

I love the Sig P220s, especially my ST. Its got weight but its balanced very nicely.

1911?

[leelaw]

Sig P225, CZ SP-01, CZ P-01, CZ 75

1911 is nice, but doesn't compare to the fit-in-your-hand like the above models.

Beretta Cougar, and the M&P is nice. (I think they call it a 1911 style grip due to the angle?)

I have no personal experience with the Sigs or the CZ75 but they look similar to the Cougar grip.

1911?

yup.

[MACA]

H&K p2000, Sig p225, Walther p99

1911 for me.

Runner ups:
*SIG P-series. Comfortable grip, but wrong location for slidestop.
*Browning Hi-Power. Comfortable, similar to 1911 control placement
*HK P2000. Ambi friendly, easy to shoot, mag release lever
*S&W M&P. Very comfortable grip, low bore axis.

I had a Cougar, an 8000 compact.

It was sold. IMHO it wasn't very good.

I haven't found a pistol yet that I didn't like to shoot.


I just love guns.

Walther P99, HK P2000, Walther P88, Steyr P9/40, Sig P22x series...

different people have different hand size, finger length, palm thickness etc.... So what ergonomically feels good to one person might not for another. That being said, I think 1911 is the best feeling pistol in most people's hands. I love the 1911 single stack think profile and grip angle.
