Hey all, not sure if this post belongs here or in tactics. So admins by all means move if need be, but my questions are related to both handguns and tactics.
The Problem:
I guess I have small hands? Or, I have short thumbs? [See Images below]
I'm unable to operate the mag and slide releases on my handguns (Ruger LC 380, AO 1911, G21 Gen 4) without adjusting my grip! My concern is that in a stressful situation, the reduced fine motor skills that go with that, and if I ever needed to reload in a hurry, could end badly for me. I've tried an extended mag release button on my Glock, but it doesn't help. Not sure if those are available for my LC 380 or 1911, but I don't think it would help anyway.
So I'm looking to the group for some guidance. Should I just keep training myself to adjust my grip when it's time to reload and hope for the best if the worst happens? Or, are there any handguns, preferably in .45 ACP, that anyone knows of that are more ergonomically friendly for people like me? Thanks ahead of time!
