I am planning to purchase Steyr Evo 10 E. I am confused whether to go with regular or compact version. Compact version is 5 cm less in length.

Main concern is if length of the pistol is longer, then centre of the weight will be further away from hand, which may strain the hand (shaky hand). What is your opinion on it?

Is there any advantage or disadvantage if I go for compact version?

Go with the long one. Your muscles will adapt to the weight in front. Maybe you will even have to add some barrell shroud weights to get the maximum results. Longer barrell and longer sight radius is also plus.

Thank you.

There is a reason why Scott Pilkington will not sell you a long version unless you are currently shooting over something like 550.

If you are not you may regret buying the long for the reasons you have touched on.

This has been discussed at length (as it were...) before:

Nothing beats trying both and going with what feels best.
