My wife really likes our TT33 Tokarev, but it's not suitable for carry. She's a light 95lbs, and double-action pistols are just not her thing. She likes the function of the Tok, and the slim frame, and the crisp single-action. She found the recoil of the 7.62x25 to be mild and easily manageable. She also really likes the look of the 1911 and the abundance of aftermarket accessories.
I'm more of a wheelgun kind of guy, and the only autos i own are tupperware.
My question: how does the 1911 compare to the Tokarev in terms of recoil? Would anyone with a 1911 be willing to let her put a few rounds down range to see for herself?
Thanks in advance, I know there are a LOT of 1911 shooters on here.
