I don't really like any H&K pistols. The grips seem weird and they recoil to the side too much for me. I also don't like Beretta's. They are ok, but they also seem to recoil to the side. I have shot pretty much every popular pistol out there. I'm going to stick with 1911's.

I looked at the Five-seveN, but the bullets just don't weigh enough. If you shoot someone with it the bullets will go straight though, which actually does the least amount of damage. The gun itself also seems kinda crappy and plasticy.

If I was going to get anything other than another 1911, I would probably get a glock or XD. I have shot a few different models of both and they seem to be pretty reliable.
