Good point, Aguila Blanca. How a particular pistol, albeit subjectively, handles and feels ("balances") in one individual's hand trumps a lot of factors that are more relevant to other individuals' opinions.
My best example is how much better a single-action revolver with a 4 3/4" barrel "balances" in my hand, as opposed to the slightly longer 5 1/2" barrel. Such a small difference shouldn't make that much difference, theoretically, but, in actuality, sometimes it does. It's always good that we have choices.
