Everyone raves about the Glock 43, but it feels so small and weird in my hands. The G19 is much better and just fits my grip...Anyone else feel this way?
 
You’re not alone, the 43 feels tiny to a lot of shooters. The G19’s fuller grip just works better for many hands
 
I prefer single stacks. My first semi-auto was a Browning Hi-Power and it felt like I was holding a brick. Then I got hold of a 1911A1 and a 40-year love affair began.

S&W N-frames are also not a good fit for me. The reach to the trigger is too far. A very long time ago I had a Model 29 and got rid of it for that reason. (It also punished my social finger.) Then about five years ago I bought a 3" Model 24 in 44 Special, thinking maybe my experience, and the fact that it wasn't a magnum, would change things. Nope.

The J, K, and L-frames are great.

A 2" Model 10 (1981) is my CCW.
