There's a lot of talk about the LAPD's increase in accidental discharges when they began the switch away from the 92 and towards the M&P 9. The theory was that the firmer DA only trigger pull of the 92 had been managed by training LEO's to "ride" the 92‘s firm trigger back to reset, and to...

....and the holster. Next to a well practiced shootist, the holster is probably the best safety. Blocks the finger from the trigger (well, most of them), prevents a muzzle-first and rear slide/hammer-first drop (see:1903 Colt .33ACP that killed its owner on rear drop). Exception may be the...

Trigger safety-bottom half must move before trigger will move. Striker won't move without trigger pulled. Drop safety keeps the striker from moving. Any current striker fired pistol will/should have these three safety systems in order to compete for commercial, military, and law enforcement...

Safety and No-Safety? How much $$? Looks like a Top Fuel dragster coming at you with all the flames.

What I Carry and Why: Tyler Kee's M&P 9 - The Truth About Guns

+P vs. non +P Looking at the Hornady Critical Duty 9mm 135gr in both +P and non +P; The +P has a 65 fps advantage over the non +P, but mean average penetration is 0.9 inches shorter than non +P. The penetration figures seem paradoxical. Is this only a statistical difference with no...

It would be a hammer semiauto. The Stoeger Cougar is one. Think of it like a DA only revolver. The trigger has to raise and drop the hammer on each trigger pull. The slide on recoil does not cock the hammer. Strikers fired are a little harder to define as the slide does pre cock the striker...

1/4 to 1/3 of the (very accurate) shots from my H&R 732 Sidekick keyholed into paper. Fiocchi 97 Grain FMJ. I'd suppose this is due to the sloooow muzzle velocity of this round from a 2" revolver? First time I've fired this one. I was surprised at the accuracy at 7 yards, DA and SA. I...

Dan Akroyd's definition of the perfect woman: PhD in Math Flys her own jet Owns a liquor store. I guess we could add, "reloads her own ammo"?

As do I. I'm much safer with this system than the stock as it helps me shoot more effectively (targets). Like putting better tires on your car when the OEM's go bald. Better stopping, better chance NOT to run into someone.
