My brother, former cop, loved the P226 and the decocking feature. He
could chamber a round, decock, add another round to the magazine, and

This all came about from police who were transitionally from a
revolver to an SA. That is what the "P" means in my KP90.
This will react just like a revolver.

The "P" means police?

I seriously don't understand the rational for DA/SA in semi-auto
pistols. I don't like the typically long and indefinite DA pull to get
to SA. I think when you pull the trigger on a firearm, it should go
bang...immediately, unless you happen to like two stage triggers. I don't.

My revolver is DA unless I pull the hammer back and pull the trigger. I
hardly ever fire it DA. I bought a DA revolver because I prefer the way
the cylinder rolls out for loading and unloading rounds. I never liked
the SA method of pushing the empties out one at a time.

I'm trying to decide on a new trigger for my AR-15. The Colt comes with
a typical mil-spec trigger...too long a pull and too heavy. I'm thinking
3 to 3.5 pounds, single stage, would be to my liking.
