If you don't want to develope a new tecnique, change the control lever to the right side of the weapon. It's quick and easy and you will still have the other lever in your drawer if you learn thumb placement. In regards to "Lord Trader" (who has obviously placed himself on a pedestal with no-one even noticing)I find Glocks to be quality weapons with nearly acceptable accuracy. Also, twice the number of parts that a good pistol should need, pointability and feel that can be adequit with a little corrective surgery to the wrist and hand. If you prefer UGLY, the Glock has all other brands beat Hands-down.
Quality with historical anbience makes the 1911's (and clones)a good choice. If they pointed well, I'd have one myself.
The BOTTOM LINE is, if you want reliability, accuracy and longevity then you buy HK. Never less than a SIG if you really have to step down.
Mabey Mr. Lord would like to expound on the merits of his fine collection of Hi-Point pistols. At $99.00 apiece, 5 of these might last as long as his fine Glock. (At least they don't have grip holes that need an accessory plug ang a parts diagram for the trigger alone.
Me, I'll stay loyal to my P7PSP,VP7OZ,USP45c and my USP45Tac. With the limited experience of only 4 HK pistols though, mabey I should wait until I know a little more about HKs.
