Handgun Size Comparison? This Web Site Makes it Easy

When comparing handguns, size matters. Wither fitting your hand or considering the print of concealed carry, we need to know how big pistols are to make good choices.

You can go to the manufacturer’s website and compare dimensions, but that can require math and may not allow you to visualize the irregular curves involved. The time honored method is to put two guns on top of each other and just look. This is problematic if you don’t have the guns in front of you.

Reddit user _niv has done a service to humanity with this comparison web site.

Go to:

https://nivlam.github.io/

Put in your guns, as many as you want. Boom, superimposed comparison photos.

Would you like a specific model added?

Send a private message on Reddit here to the site manager.

It is polite to include the following in your request:

  • Manufacturer and model names.
  • A link to the gun’s specifications/dimensions.
  • A link to a high quality side image of the gun.

To the site host, Thank you!
