If you have small hands a 1911 may be a good shout, they've got quite narrow grips. Anything, TM do a fairly good variety of 1911s too, including a really nice chrome one!
Thoughts on these pistols?

IMO the Hi-Capa is the one then. I had a 5.1 (the 4.3's slightly bigger brother) and it was flawless.
Most of my 'softing buddies have stuck to some variant of the Hi-Capa.
Tonnes of upgrade and mod options for when you realise that the Stock model isn't quiet enough and you need (not want, need) I upgrade it to make it more awesome.
Treat it well and it'll last longer than you will!

One thing to consider is what your going to use your pistol for. Sounds like a silly question but bare with me.
If you are planning to use it as a back up to switch to quickly, when you enter tight spots, or when your primary goes empty or malfunctions you may want to rethink the 1911/Hi Capa. And thats coming from someone who owns one and loves it dearly.
They are carried cocked and locked, hammer back safety on. But I cant count the number of times I drew it on the hurry up and forgot to release the safety. So I filed the hammer so I could carry it loaded with the safety off and the hammer down, thinking I'd pull the hammer back as I drew it. Nope, still didn't happen.
So now my back up is a Glock 17. The TM Hi Capa comes out for specific CQB games as there isn't anything to touch it. I just can't draw and engage with it as quickly as a pistol with no manual safety.
