Gdub Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I know there was a post on here explaining the differences. Hell I might have started it. Anyway I can't find it. Can someone please locate it for me or just explain the differences. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yagi Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I am pretty sure the owner of the small frame gun you were looking would be able to explain it too... Here is my take on the size of the grip...And maybe someone can chime in. Small Frame + EG Grips = Smallest Small Frame + Henning Grips = Smaller Large Frame + Henning Grips = Small to Medium Small Frame + Stock Wood Grips or Large Frame with EG Grips = Medium Large Frame + Stock Wood Grips = Large Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBaron Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The actual feel between large frame and small frame is bugger all. I used to think I could tell but I think that was partly different grips on the different guns and partly in my mind. Most of the difference is inside. if you look at the small frame there is more 'meat' in the back of the grip which reduces the magazine 'tunnel' down to take the smaller CZ type mags. Obviously the 'action' is a bit shorter too. The large frames take the caspian type mags. If you only ever plan to shoot 9mm then a small frame or large frame makes little difference. For anything else I'd preference the large frame. If it's a hand size issue then either frame will feel pretty much the same with the same grips on them.

That's what I thought I was seeing in the comparison pictures. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stician Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 I ordered Xtreme firing pin, clicked on add to cart on the main page and missed the fact that by default small frame selected. And it already shipped. Anyone know if there is a difference between firing pins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
