How do you like your 938. I have some serious arthritis in my right thumb joint which precludes using certain 9mm and 380's. Tell me about the feel and the recoil, albeit from a young man's point of view.
Thanks Sydney

From my POV if you have arthritis it would not be a fun gun to use. The best term I can use for it is stiff. To be that small and handle 9mm everything is very beefy, which is good from a holding up standpoint, but it is difficult to use and teardown to clean. I can only shoot about 50rds through it at a time, not because of the recoil though. The mag is tough to load and it tears my thumbs up after about 50. Its not too bad on the recoil, and as long as your grip is right its not *too* jumpy. Overall I am happy with it for the intended purpose, but if I had arthritis there is no way I would want to deal with it.
