I know that "feeling" you are talking about. I once had a H&K it had that "feeling", but lost every bit of it when I shot it.....but just to handle it was magical!
Strange -- my HK USP Tactical .45 still has that "magical" feeling -- you aren't going to believe me, but i know exactly what you are talking about. I will never forget the first time i saw the business end of an HK USP... it was like blue stars shot off in my head and i knew i had to have one, no matter how much it cost. I didn't even like "plastic guns" back then, but the recoil reduction thing you feel when you shoot it, and the way the parts fit together like a custom match pistol, it's the baddest pistol i have ever seen, although the Springfield XD seems to have captured some of that rediculously fabulous design... duhh, babbling... sorry... guns, you know...
