Abstract
A firearm includes a trigger and a handle. The handle is configured to be gripped by the hand of a user of the firearm. The handle includes a front portion located under the trigger and facing the firing direction, a back portion located on a rear side of the handle facing a direction opposite of the firing direction, and primary and secondary side portions located between the front portion and the back portion. The primary side portion is configured to receive the shooting hand of the user and the secondary side portion is configured to receive the support hand of the user. The secondary side portion includes an elongated ridge protruding away from a surface of the secondary side portion. The ridge is configured to engage a heel of the support hand thereby allowing the support hand to absorb a portion of a recoil force when the firearm is fired.
