WOW JohnnyMop...still have your head in the toilet?
You'd think you could be a bit more sociable this time of year....after all, you claim to be a Christian and we're coming up to the birth of your savior. This should be a happy time.

I think zombie is Harrie's code for creditor.
I wonder how he's able to sleep at night or even nap in the daytime.
Do you think he uses his sleep apnea machine when he goes nappy bye in
the afternoon?

Damn Donnie, you've been retired how long? Still having flashbacks to
your job. Relax.

Please tell us, Bilious, why *this* would be a new "gun for Harry"?

I've posted here a number of times that:

1. I don't much like fully auto firearms
2. I don't like striker-fired pistols
3. I don't like polymer pistols
4. I don't like semi-auto pistols without a traditional safety

The first pistol I bought many years ago was a semi-auto Glock, and
while I had no issues with it, I got rid of it about a year later and
bought another 9 mm pistol, an all-steel one, with an ambi safety.






I should amend this... I did get to fire and I do like the relatively
new Walther PPQ M2, a 9 mm striker-fired pistol with a terrific trigger
right out of the box, much better than the Glocks I have fired. No
traditional safety, partly polymer, but still a really nice sidearm.
Wouldn't mind owning one.


Which part bothers you, the fact that it is striker fired or that it
is DAO?

Actually it is fairly common that DAO SAs don't have a safety. It is
the same theory as why revolvers don't have safeties.
My Ruger doesn't either. You simply decock it when you are not
actively shooting.
That is part of my regular drill, starting at retention, finger on the
slide, firing 2 quick rounds and returning to retention, finger on the
slide, while decocking. I have just built the muscle memory so it is
instinctive.

You decock the hammer with a round in the chamber?

What if?


The Sig P226 also has a decocker. What if? Keep it pointed downrange
when decocking.

Only Don could attempt an insult followed by talk of birth of the
Savior.

Don, do we want to start a discussion of where you keep your head,
your use of Preparation H, and so on?

I think not.

On the Glock I had? Mostly lack of a real safety, and I never was much
impressed with the standard Glock triggers.

spectacular and your New Year even more so!

One of the pistols I had or have (maybe it's the Walther?) has a safety
but they call it a "decocker". I *think* you are supposed to be able
to decock it without firing a round that may be loaded but I've never
trusted it to try it. May not be the Walther. I can't remember.
