    DA isn't that hard to train for. Just do some dry fire regularly. I prefer a decocker gun for defense. When holstering the gun, I have my thumb on the hammer. I'm not a fan of Glock Leg. ...

    Handgun? Rifle? What are you training for?

    Have you been doing dry fire through the Winter? That might drive your plan.

    I shoot an SP-01 in USPSA. Manual decocking, at the range, is fine. I don't like doing it at home. I have a P-07 and love it for defense. The omega trigger allows safety or decocker. I...
