hey bud. i would STRONGLY recommend the KSC g19. it is small, reliable, and has a nice feel as well as a strong blow back when used with propane and a metal slide combo.

it is personally my favorite sidearm that i own.

i recommend the metal slide as well. if you are on a budget, start with the abs one and upgrade later.

Start with ABS if you're on a budget? I wouldn't say so.

Try a KJW G23 or any gun from a manufacturer that makes them full metal. Only buy plastic if you have to. In this case, if it has to say Glock 19 on the side then get it or mabey try KWA.

KSC Glock 19 hands done. Best bang for you buck, add on a metal slide and use propane, run 0.30g BBs and you can't go wrong with it at all (I love them so much, I own TWO KSC G19s!) Even has a LOT of weight to it (even stock, more so with metal upgrades), I'd say it's compared about to a fully loaded real steel Glock 19! TM SIG P226 is another good one about the same size.

PVT Cold, chances are high that Haggis is older than you, so don't treat him like a 16 year old who wants to be spoon fed. I've chatted with Haggis a few times, he tends to do a lot of reading more than posting.

And Haggis, asking me via PM or MSN Messenger is completely flameless. Ask any of the many who come to me for advice! If I can't give it, I can direct you to those that can. 8)

Good Link for the lady hands amoung us....its not so much of the lady hands but i have bad arthitis due to multiple bone breaks in my hands so a smaller item is easier to handle (justification for my ***** reduction operation) :lol:

never ever start off with a revolver...I learned the hard way. I love it now but there was a serious learning curve for aiming and reloading...Good luck...I hear the HFC M190 is good...

KJW M9 is by far the best your money can buy. Full metal, propane ready, and it last forever.
