If for just target shooting then not necessarily an issue unless you can't correct your firing technique or if you are a petite female and just can't get the grip necessary. However, if purchasing for home defense or concealed carry and you are injured, that should make you pause in deciding which gun to purchase. That all goes back to your sound recommendation to fire the gun first before purchasing in order to make sure.
