Maybe LTT should rename the SCD the "Dangerfield".
Seems fitting on more than one level.
There's nothing civil about this war.
Agree in principle with everything except the bolded section. The striker control device, as designed for a Glock, directly blocks the rearward movement of the striker itself, hence the name of the device is “striker control device”.
A similar device for a fully tensioned striker would have to directly block the trigger bar movement to the rear, but the SCD for Glocks is blocking the partially tensioned Glock striker, so the trigger bar movement is prevented by the striker not moving due to pressure on the SCD backplate.
All of my Glocks except the G44 have an SCD and always will. If someone makes one for the G44, I will buy 3.
Obviously, the fact of the matter is, the SCD makes a Glock safer, although most Glock owners have never heard of it. Add to that, the mentality of "why spend the money on that, JUST HOLSTER SLOWLY", as I heard a local trainer say.
You can lead a horse...
