The DA trigger in dry fire sucks ass compared to any Beretta trigger I've ever tried, but, shooting on the timer on the range, I don't notice any "suck" at all. The trigger is longish, and heavy-ish, and if you pull it REALLY SLOW you can feel "micro hitches" in the action. But, in the real world, I can't imagine when that would make a difference. Front sight on target, press the trigger consistently and without stop, and the rounds will go where you want them.
I say all that with a healthy helping of crow, because I've been an outspoken HK-triggger-basher for a long time, because they "feel" bad in slow dry fire. The proof in the range pudding says they work just fine. The SA reset is longer than I'd like, and there's considerable take up after reset, which I could do without, but again, neither of those trigger snob issues really made a difference in my shooting.
On the issue of the P30 as opposed to the P2000, I really don't think the larger pistol is worth the effort. I had both in LEM and ran them exclusively and hard circa 2012-2014, and consistently shot better with the P2000 than the P30, despite how "good" the P30 grip "feels."
Having said all that, if you're looking for an RDS host TDA pistol, I agree that the CZ platform is probably the best bet, mainly because it is the most frequently modded that way, so the folks who are doing it are doing it right, and it's a little less spendy than a true "custom mill." As others have noted, there are a couple "classic" Sig variants that come RDS ready, but I don't/won't give Ron Cohen another penny of my hard-earned money - based on principles, and knowledge of what passes for craftsmanship and QC at Exeter these days.
