Simply awesome, combine the best features of a handgun (most models.)These are duty guns, made to defend yourself. Availible in all major calibers, ranging in size from concealed carry to duty sized. They are solid feeling, made of metal. Confortable grip angle, break down nice and easy, have a nice DA/SA trigger, are accurate, almost 100% reliable and durable as hell, plus SIG has good customer service. Stock night sights is a great feature. In a sense, DA/SA sigs just fit me.

I think there is almost no difference in West German and modern SIGs, id take either but modern models most likely.

SIG Sauer

Simply awesome, combine the best features of a handgun (most models.)These are duty guns, made to defend yourself. Availible in all major calibers, ranging in size from concealed carry to duty sized. They are solid feeling, made of metal. Confortable grip angle, break down nice and easy, have a nice DA/SA trigger, are accurate, almost 100% reliable and durable as hell, plus SIG has good customer service. Stock night sights are a great feature. In a sense, DA/SA sigs just fit me.

I think there is almost no difference in West German and modern SIGs, id take either but modern models most likely.

Now, not all SIGs are like this, first, stainless frames are hard to come by right now, so that is an issue. Second, the p250, DAK, and DAO models suck. I hate the 250 since its A. DAO. B. Ugly.

DAO triggers suck, bad, long heavy pull each time, its a crutch for lack of training by agencies too afraid of an accidental shooting that they dont care if their guns are easy to shoot on duty.

DAK sucks, being a DAO, its a little better, averaging 6.5 lbs, not 10-12, but then again it is still a long pull, and the intermediate reset is heavier than standard pull, resets should be same weight, and all DAOs are hard to shoot fast or accurately at range, especially under stress, and to add it to a very bad trigger, its catching on amongst law enforcement everywhere, many departments trading in DA/SA guns for this crap! Some say "the consistent trigger helps people shoot." I say a consistent trigge ronly helps if its consistently good......

1911 series

Beretta 92 series

The Beretta 92 is an overrated pistol unfairly hyped due to military use and media exposure. Sure, its used by the military. Only becuase the U.S. wanted a base in Italy so gave the contract to an Italian company, and it was cheaper than SIG, which also passed the military trials. A lot of people have a "if the military uses it it must be good" mentality and like to say "im cool i have what the military has." Then you add in that its easy to convert to blanks so appears in every movie, people see it a lot and think its cool. In reality, Police departments that had issued it are now turning them in. The gun is very flawed. First, it is way to big and heavy for the caliber, the thing feels chunky, is massive, and even in .40 cal (beretta 96) when you want more weight, it only holds 11 rounds in the magazine. The grip, you need size XXL mitts to use. Its thick, and not very confortable unless your weating gloves. My finger cannot reach the front of the trigger guard, which is where i like to drop it, and there is a unconfortable pressure point on my thumb when shooting it. The safety is in a stupid place too, on the slide. I do not put safeties on on a DA/SA, no need. The gun will only go off if the trigger is pulled. But on the slide, when racking it, you may inadvertently turn the safety on. This is dangerous. So the fact that this pistol is as ergonomic as a brick, and overrated to the max, makes me just hate the damn thing.

Glock

SA XD

AK Series

Shotguns

I love pump action shotguns for versatility and reliability, being able to shoot light trap loads to full out magnums. I need astock on it though.

Mossberg Vs. Remington:

I like the controls (safety, slide release) way better on a mossberg, however a remington feels more natural. Mostly the slide position, so in the end remington wins by a small margin, also, recoil pads suck on both and need replacing.

Pistol grip only shotguns are just a tacticool mall ninja thing, they offer no control or accuracy beyond contact range. If storage space is an issue get a folding stock, so you can fit it in a more compact package but can still unfold the stock and use it for control.

CZ 75

A very good and underrated pistol. Again, all metal, good ergonomics, and a DA/SA trigger that on some models allows cocked and locked carry, if thats what you prefer. The stock sights are nice 3 dot and night sights availible and plentiful. Its also very accurate. The only problems I see are A. Magazine disconnect, but can easily be removed. B. No checkering on frontstrap, I dont like smooth frontstraps. Grip tape, a wraparound grip can solve this, but its expensive to get it machined like it should be in the first place. So, even with a couple flaws it is a great package.

Ar-15

Trigger types

I will say views on:

Remember, not all guns are the same so this is generalized.

SAO

SAO offers some benefits and some flaws. Benefits being a consistent and good pull, which is great at the range, or in competition, and as a military sidearm to back up a primary. The problem is extra training is needed. You need to be able to draw and disengage safety, which takes a lot of practice to get muscle memory, but a good 1911 trigger makes it worth it. Not my first choice (DA/SA with exposed hammer is first) but easily takes second place.

DAO

I hate DAO, its a crutch for lack of training, people say "its safer less likely to go off by accident." Dont put the finger on the bang switch till you shoot! Simple! A DAO is long, heavy, and gives more room or error or to pull a shot if under stress. Some people claim consistency helps shoot better, this may be true for a 1911 or such when its consistently good, consistently bad triggers ake you shoot consistently bad. A shorter, lighter pull will give less time to overthink, flinch, etc. DAO triggers are forced on officers by departments avoiding lawsuits, some people may want DAO but i wont trust my life to one. Ever. Spend money on training, not shitty triggers.

"Safe Action"

Only experience is with Glock and XD. I believe this is an improvment over DAO since the precocked desighn allows shorter lighter pull, but it is generally heavier than a single action gun. Not very smooth either. Ive heard they can be improved, but only shot in stock form and was a little spongy with some stacking. Also, the trigger itself didnt feel great, i mean the actual face where the finger rides. I used to absolutely hate triggers like this, now ive changed a bit but still not choice number one.

DA/SA

Absolutely the best. Hands down. Allows the pistol to be carried, hammer down, ready to shoot, no safety or anything. Always ready to rock, and safe. The DA pull would only be used on the draw, quick, close up and personal. After the initial hard pull, the trigger is in single action, my favorite. And if you have time to get ready to shoot, like you hear a bad guy breaking down your door or need to make a long range shot, you can thumb cock the hammer and make that precise shot right off. It offers safety and shootability, the best. Hands down.

Squared vs. rounded trigger guard

Some gunwriters decided it was cool to start hating squared guards, some saying its unnecessary and looks ugly, some claiming it will get caught on clothes during a draw, all kinds of crap. I prefer squared, neither type is a dealbreaker, but i like squared as a preference. First, i like to put my finger on the front of the trigger guard to keep it off the trigger, feels more secure and natural than along the frame. Second, it looks more flush when mounting a light on a rail, and not jacked up like a curved guard.

Magazine Disconnect safety

Unnecessary. First, for some reason every gun with this has a heavier trigger pull than the same model without. Pretty much everybody who can removes it. Second, sometimes the round in the chamber is all you got. Id hate for a gun to not go bang in a fight if the magazine was loose due to a bent feed lip or inadvertently hitting the release. It should not be on any gun.
