I have the G21 and love it. IT has never failed me or jammed once. Recoil is absorbed well and not a problem and I can hit pretty well with it as well. The 45ACP is a good stopping round. The feel of the gun is perfect for my hand.

I have never shot one but I have handled tham a few times. I don't care for Double Action Only and I hate the slide release. I don't know what I am doing wrong but it never wants to work easily.
I would buy a Sig, HK or Ruger first.

The P220 also has a large grip as well(double stack too), you may not like it either. I've had my Glock 21 for 4 years and put thousands of rounds through it(200 per week for a while- may not seem like much to a lot of you but I don't reload and it gets pricey). I've used it in temperatures varying from -40 up to 85(these are the absolute extremes here in northern Vermont), and it has jammed only twice, this was DUE TO AMMUNITION. I don't use Speer Lawman anymore because of that one day. The two rounds were from the same box; one went off roughly 4secs late and landed 20 feet away(I'm glad it didn't get stuck in the barrel) and couldn't push the slide back, the next one had a deformed case and wouldn't chamber. I've been told since that this was a fluke and that Speer Lawman ammo is good- but you don't come back from an experience like that(not to mention the powder is almost as smokey as black powder).
