This may sound a little odd, but i was reading in another thread about .32s and .380s and someone mentioned how the .380s recoilded more sharply than other pistols. I had heard this before, and i understand why, well sort of.
I have thought about purchasing, when finaces allow it, a Springfield Ultra Compact Fits my hand like a glove, and looks like it will conceal like a dream. But i have heard some people complain about the recoil since it is such a small handgun. So i am somewhat concerned that the recoil might be too much for me to be real accurate with.
I have been using my Bersa .380 for the last few months, and don't have much to compare it to, recoil wise. While i own a .357 mag, its currently in the evidence locker at the FBI (it was stolen, and then recovered by the FBI), and i can't really remember how much recoil it had. I did get to fire a full size 1911 for a couple rounds a few months back, and i didn't notice much, if any difference in recoil between that and my little Bersa.
So heres my question;
How does the recoil out of a compact .380 compare to other pistols, such as the Glock 23, Springfield UC, XD40, ect?
Thanks again.
