Second the Mark IINagant M1895 good luck hitting anything with that double action trigger pull.
Ruger Mark II, jam-o-matic and a completely retarded disassembly/reassembly.
I have one and hate it.

Hi, Andy,Lots of firearms just aren't my thing...but there are few that I "hate"...
If pressed I'd guess that I'd say any gun that has been used against me in a combat zone...
At that point in time , when I was getting shot at ...I have no problems now , with the many different types of "small arms" that were used against me any longer ....'cause I am no longer getting shot at with them....
And even then ...it wasn't really the gun per se....but the situation...

Sounds like there are at least Three of of here. MikeHi, Andy,
I thought I was the only one who refuse to own or use the same.
No wooden stock AK's, SKS, Mosin, et al. Makes me cringe.
I'd like to compliment you as an eloquent writer. I enjoy reading your comments.
Best,

The other was a Glock 36. Hey now a Glock is fine in its standard size in 9mm but chop it to the size of the 36 in .45 and it has virtually no redeeming qualities - hard to hold, massive recoil, Terrible accuracy and jammed with SWC ammo (which was not surprising)
I couldn't even fathom considering it for defensive/CC carry -
Yea I once had a alloy frame Colt LWC and in reality it didn't seem to kick much more than my FS all steel 1991-A1 - maybe a little but not exponentially greater than the FS gun.I switched to the 1911 and never looked back.
It only stands to reason that with the lighter weight Commander will produce greater felt recoil. But because of the slight reduction in velocity, because of the shorter barrel, the actual difference will be minimal. For me the full sized gun tends to be more accurate. That being said, I have a Detonics with a 3-1/2" tube and a shorter frame that is extremely accurate. And I don't think anything that I have shot with any of them has has failed to react accordingly.Yea I once had a alloy frame Colt LWC and in reality it didn't seem to kick much more than my FS all steel 1991-A1 - maybe a little but not exponentially greater than the FS gun.
Thank you for the kind words...Hi, Andy,

I have large hands for a woman, and ran into a similar problem with j frame Smith's. What worked for me was positioning my left thumb on the left side of trigger guard. Then putting trigger finger all the way through trigger guard and resting pad of trigger finger on left thumb. This stabilizes gun and prevents me pulling it off to the left when I pull the trigger. I addressed the trigger with first joint on trigger finger. So it was only the joint area of my trigger finger that moved when I pulled the trigger. This worked well enough if shooting with two hands. What worked even better was dumping all j frame revolvers and other small guns and just sticking to bigger guns.Kel Tec P3AT The thing is so small (which is why I bought it in the first place), that with the DA trigger, by the time the thing goes off, my finger is curled completely around the trigger and then the thing moves in my hand because my grip is compromised (I have huge hands...that's right ladies). This wore a patch of skin off my trigger finger that took nearly a month to heal after about 25 rounds.
Psychologically speaking the qualities of hate or love can only be applied to a living object. AND hate is a form of love.I wouldn't say I hate any firearm, unless it was mean to me.
I had a Ruger Mark II 5.5 bull barrel that fired thousands of rounds of various kinds of ammo without ever failing or jamming. Tack driver, too. It was definitely a royal pain to take down, though.Second the Mark II

I have a 22/45 Mark III, and the taking down is easy enough, it is the reassembly that can be challenging.I had a Ruger Mark II 5.5 bull barrel that fired thousands of rounds of various kinds of ammo without ever failing or jamming.

All the Ruger .22 Rimfire Automatic Pistols are Very easy to reassemble. It's simply a matter of knowing how to do it and then remembering the little trick to it.
