Pelikan size question

I am about to order a Pelikan M101N Special Edition Bright Red Medium Fountain Pen, but I am afraid it might be too small. I have what I consider an 'entry' level Pelikan, the M150, and it is tiny in my hand. I am a big guy, and from what I have found on the web is that the posted length of the M101 is similar to the M150, but is a thicker pen. Can anyone shed some insight into the M101 size? The other Pelikan I was considering was the M600 Vibrant Orange. Thanks.

Me thinks you would be much happier with the 600.

I think you are right. The 600 will probably be a much better fit. Thanks for your reply.

While the M 600 is a nice size, I suggest you also check out the M 800 and M. 1000 pens. If your hands are really large, or if you just like larger, or what is called an oversize pen, you may find that you enjoy the much larger pens even more than the M 600. I have all of these pens, and the M 1000 is, without a doubt, the most impressive.

I think I need to try to find a retailer that has the different pens in stock that I can try or at least hold in my hands. The amount of money that they cost is not exactly pocket change to me, and I would like to be sure before I shell out that kind of dough. Thanks for your input.
