Might get gun soon. HK45 looks pretty cool.

Looks cool, sure, yet starting out with a .45 might be a bit rough unless you are a larger fenni ...
while reportedly on par for recoil with other (heavier) guns in that class, the HK45 is still a lightweight 45-calibre.

I am a fair-sized doge, and am not even a fan of the bark of a .40cal - I can handle it well enough, just prefer 22LR for lower cost of practice ammo and 9mm for a bit less bite.

More important than 'looks cool', of course, is how she fits in yer hand; it might be good to find a range that has in-house rentals/loaners to try out a few frame sizes and calibres before committing to a purchase.
