Looking for Higher Caliber but Lower Recoil? Search for These Handguns on GunBroker.com For some gun enthusiasts, the recoil of a handgun is a relatively minor factor. However, heavy recoil can rule out some pistols or revolvers as an option for beginners, those with smaller hands, or those who simply prefer less recoil. Fortunately, hundreds of makes and models of handguns are listed for sale on the GunBroker.com marketplace, along with rifles, shotguns, and gun accessories. If you are searching for a higher-caliber, lower-recoil handgun, consider the following options.

Ruger SR9 Beyond any considerations of recoil, the Ruger SR9 is regarded as an impressive handgun.

Despite being a double-stack, high-capacity 9mm pistol, the Ruger’s grip is barely over an inch in width. That makes it one of, if not the thinnest double-stack guns on the market. By incorporating a low slide profile, the SR9’s axis is close to the shooter’s hand, which reduces recoil and muzzle rise. The pistol’s compact size makes it a popular option for concealed carry.

Kel-Tec PMR 30 In addition to offering low recoil, the Kel-Tec PMR 30 is known for being enjoyable to shoot, as it is chambered in the relatively modest but still reliable 22 WMR (22 Magnum) cartridge. One of the first things you might notice about the PMR 30 after acquiring one from a GunBroker.com auction or sale is its low weight. High-strength polymers give the gun a deceptively insubstantial feel, but the PMR 30 maintains a whisper of a kick.

Sig P226 The Sig Sauer P226 often ranks among the top-five 9mm pistols ever produced. The Sig 226 is in service with dozens of police and military forces worldwide—including the U.S. Navy SEALs— and enjoys ongoing popularity with GunBroker.com users. Part of that popularity stems from its reputation for being sturdy but not bulky. That sturdiness contributes to its reduced recoil and underscores the Sig P226’s reputation for having a comfortable and ergonomic feel.

Ruger SP 101 The Ruger SP 101, when chambered in 327 Magnum, warrants mention. The 327 Mag caliber delivers performance that can rival the 357 Magnum but with much less recoil. However, if you are looking for even less recoil than the 327 Mag produces, you are in luck: Revolvers chambered for 327 Mag are possibly the most versatile in production as they can fire five different cartridges. Beyond the 327 Magnum, this revolver can also fire 327 H&R, 32 S&W Long, 32 S&W, and even 32 ACP. This versatility is why the 327 Magnum is an option often listed for sale or auction on the GunBroker.com online marketplace.
