Glock 44
Best lightweight pistol for new shooters learning marksmanship fundamentals.
This is the ultimate training companion for anyone looking to master handgun fundamentals without the punishing recoil or cost of larger calibers. The hybrid slide keeps things incredibly light and manageable, though you sacrifice the stopping power and serious utility of a defensive carry weapon for the sake of pure, repeatable practice.
