How many here would refuse to own a gun without second (primer) strike ability? Are you ok with having to rack the slide and eject the offending round in order to be able to fire, especially in a potential life or death situation?
Do you demand DAO second strike or are you ok with SA recocking? Do you even perish the thought of carring a hammerless gun?
This isn't meant to be a "my gun maker is better" war. The reason I ask is because I demand second strike capability because it is always easier and faster to pull the trigger a second time before racking the slide for a fresh round. This is why I do not carry Glock, XD's, baby Kel-Tecs etc...
Truth is I love my autos but carry a revolver no less than 70% of the time. It is the level of perceived reliability that makes me leave my autos in the safe when I hit the streets.
