Harley, your Mini is definitely too small for my hands. I don't think I'd be accurate from more than a few feet away (I have XXL hand size and wouldn't be able to hold it).

But in the spirit of new pocket guns, I have a Sig P238 on the way. Might not fit in everyone's pocket, but it will in mine :D

I have grown up sized hands also and the Mini is small.

Going to buy some larger aftermarket grips that are suppose to help with this but not so big as to effect concealment.

I don't have the grips yet though so here is a before picture to tide you over.



I hate to be one of those grammar police types, but this one is bugging me.  You should have used affect in that case, not effect.  Affect is mostly used as a verb and means the same as influence, while effect is mostly used as a noun and means the same as result.

I don't see how changing the grips is going to make any difference, performance wise.  These minis are meant to be used at contact range.

Next time I will make sure to look up the meaning of every word I type before posting here.

Have you seen a picture of my new Mini?

Sorry Chako my thread bombing was all in good fun.

Now I know everyone doesn't care for it I will stop. Here is a picture everyone should love. Who doesn't like suppressed sniper rifles? ISIS I suppose.

Alright now we're talking my style :drool: if it's one thing I always wanted to be it was a sniper, I was even top-shot on the rifle team back in highschool.. Yes it was only with .22, but I've handled 30-30, 30-06, 410, 16, and 12ga.. Even had to sight in someone else's rifle cause the idiot got scope eye..

I wish, even waaaay back in 98, my cousin had his marine Corp guy signing him up and he looked at me and said,
you interested?
And I said I'll bet you won't take me, no one will.
Oh really, I'm sure we can work something out.
so I said if you'll take me, I'll sign the paperwork right now!
So he said with a smile, and why won't anyone take you?
Medically, I have a seizure disorder,
Needless to say he turned and started taking to my cousin..

I should have made a real good bet with him! Oh well..

Bit bigger than a mini 22. Grip is a lot bigger, and the barrel is a good bit longer as well.

When I need something a bit bigger than my mini .22, then my baby Glock gets carried.

Another full-auto session. Put a 100 rounds each through an HK UMP and a Kriss Vector SMG. Both are .45 auto.

The Vector has the highest cyclic rate I've ever encountered, around 1,200 rpm. However it uses an odd delayed blowback recoil system where the bolt moves back and down into the area behind the magazine, making the weapon surprisingly controllable.

The HK is also fun, but I prefer the 9mm MP5. The later is more accurate for me and also handles better.

Thanks. It's one of the surplus Italian police 92S that have been available here in the US. I got it about a year or so ago. Nice shooter. Still need to add a dab of paint to the front sight. My old eyes do much better with a dot to see instead of just iron.  :D

A nice sunny morning, warm sunshine, and some time on the shooting range. I love my Smith and Wesson K frame rimfire. Such a nice accurate handgun.

Don't get too serious, just enough will do.
