@Hawk1291 havent spent any time with or bought a glock yet, but I hear really good things.

Yea I think a lot of it is the gun. Take my judge, a revolver with a 45 colt long caliber, so a bit weaker but similar energy... that one hurts your hand and is quite noticable. the 10mm is barely worse than my lighter 9mm.

@freemo @Hawk1291 That's odd about the 45LC. That was the first pistol caliber I shot and at 11 it wasn't uncomfortable. It was fired from a Single Action Army style revolver so all the mass was likely the reason.

Same day as I got introduced to the AR-15 in the form of a Bushmaster. I remember that both were oddly comfortable to shoot for an adolescent.

Oddly enough, I didn't like 9mm at first because of how quickly the barrel rises but it's just part of getting used to a new caliber.

Perhaps it is just based on my experience with long rifles. It's not love unless it leaves a bruise and a little tenderness the day after.
