I don't like the Bisley grip. It doesn't fit my hand very well. I prefer the standard 6-gun grip.

Ive never held one,is it too small a grip??hard to hold under recoil??

It just didn't fit my hand. It wasn't too small or too large. I just didn't like the way it felt compared to a regular grip. It could be that I'm used to the regular style and not the Bisley style. The angle of the grip just isn't for me.

When I aimed it, the gun just didn't point right for me. It felt unnatural the way the grip felt in my hand. Now, with a regular grip, everything feels right and the gun comes up and points in the general direction I'm aiming in.

I'm not saying the Bisley style has anything wrong with it, it's just that it doesn't "fit" my hand the way I want it to. I'm sure if I spent a lot of time holding and shooting it, I would have a different opinion, but I'm just used to the regular style grip and the angle it points the gun when I bring it up.

I am just the opposite. The "Plow handle grip" in my hand, seem to point upward. The Bisley just points more natural to me.

But a 1911 used to feel right to me. Now I am so used to handling Glocks, it feels odd when I pick up a 1911. Not knocking any of them. I just think it's what you get used to handling and prefer.

Also, I love 1911's and Glocks. So nobody throw any rocks...

I have a 1911, but no Glock.
