Looking for somthing similar to the Razor Deathadder but smaller

Bought the Deathadder for my new PC. After using it for a few days, I realized it was just to big for me. which is ashame, because Its a really good mouse. I guess im more suited for a claw type mouse. So if anyone of you fine folks have a suggestion for a decent right handed claw type mouse, I would greatly appreciate it. it doesnt have to have a lot of buttons on the side, as I mainly play FPS type games. Wired/USB is prefered.
 
bump....Just came back to say it doesnt have to be like the razor. Just a claw style mouse thats decent for gaming and general use. Right handed is prefered, but im open to a ambidextrous type mouse too. Thanks.
 
@Ride orochi looks good I prefer wired mice, but the fact that it can go wireless is a nice bonus. im leaning towards the Razor Abyssus too. if you know or have heard anything one way or the other on this mouse, please let me know. Looking into the Logitechs too. Again, thanks for the input.

The Abyssus is pretty popular on the esreality forums. These guys don't care much for side buttons though since they just play FPS games. Check out their hardware forum for user reviews of other mice.

The Abyssus is a little smaller than the DA.

Mamba, Naga, G9x, Orochi (Riou)

Thanks for the pics and link! One more question for you. Would you say your G9x is a mid sized mouse then? I see the pics, but id rather hear info from an actual user. im definitely more of a clawer then a palmer thats for sure. I just assumed (wrongly) that the deathadder would fit me to a Tee. its just to big/long for me.

Yes, I'd say it's between an Orochi and DA. The grip shown above is the wider version. I'm using the narrower grip. Doesn't really matter though since my palm never touches the mouse with either grip.

You should also check out the RAT 7. It's very customizable for any style so maybe you'll find it more to your liking. Doesn't seem too popular for FPS gamers since it's a little heavy and it uses the twin eye sensor but Maximum PC loves it to death.

Been looking at youtube vids for several models. I have to admit, the G9x impresses me with all of its features (plus not being overly big) I find being able to adjust the weight of the mouse an interesting feature. Although I wonder if its just as good/usable if someone chose not to use any of the mini weights in it. I can see why you would love it RIDE.

I have this mouse currently, and its somewhat unreliable. Sometimes just moving the cursor around becomes very slow. Also, it seems to get stuck after awhile and will only move up and down, and I have to pick it up and shake it around. Just today I decided to go back to my Deathadder and see what else is new in mice. Which is a shame, cause I also have another RAT 7 NIB sitting on the shelf.
