I thought the 226 had either the DA/SA standard or DAK (Double Action Kellerman,evidenced by the shorter hammer/no spur), setups only. I could be mistaken. - Peejn8r
I love my Sig but honestly limiting a DA/SA gun to DAO seems dumb to be because its not designed for it.  Especially when Glock and the alike, XD M&P p99, have a similar feeling setup with way better trigger pulls. - Peejn8r


:Could someone please enlighten me as to why Police Departments are switching over to DAO? I dont see what is wrong with DA/SA, and I personally cant stand DAO, with the longer trigger pull each time. Sorry if I come off as ignorant, as there is probably a good reason.--[[User:--JazzBlackBelt--|--JazzBlackBelt--]] 04:28, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

I can't speak for Chicago but my PD went to DAO or striker fired only to keep the manual of arms the same. That way if another person had to use another persons firearm for some reason it is a consistant trigger pull. I personally prefer DA/SA for my firearms but having a consistant trigger pull has its merits. --[[User:Ram229|Ram229]] 01:09, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Thats pretty much it... The idea behind DAO is not so much if another officer gets the weapon but for the training.  With the DAO pattern the trigger pull is identical everytime.  The problem with a DAO system is the massive long trigger pull making it harder to use the tried and true double take accurately.  The advantage of a striker fired weapon is the identical trigger pull of a DAO system without the massively long pull.  I think with a DAO Beretta the pull is like 12 pounds everytime.  The pull on a Glock is supposed to be 5.5, Huge difference.  Personally I prefer the DA/SA setup, or even Cocked and Locked Single Action. - Peejn8r

Unknown gun

While I am rewatching the first 2 episodes, can someone ID this gun for me. It appeared in the opening chase scene in the first episode

I may be wrong, but that looks like a Vektor CP1 to me. The shape looks right, I can't think of any other pistol with a partly red trigger, and I think I can just about make out the Vektor logo on the grip. Jimmoy 12:56, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

I agree with Jimmoy, definetley a CP1 --SmithandWesson36 20:51, 18 February 2011 (UTC)


Deleted my images

I want to know why was 2 images of the SIG I capped were deleted and I had to repost them Excalibur01 05:27, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Accidentally deleted those while trying to add another pic. My bad. -Peejn8r

Carry guns

So if the posted trivia about the Chicago Police department is correct... The 226 Caleb Evers carries would not be allowed because it is a DA/SA, as evidenced by the hammer spur on his 226, instead of the DAK pattern that would be required? - Peejn8r

I thought the 226 can also be in DAO Excalibur01 03:25, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
