just seems like they would order something DA only instead of ruining a perfectly good SA stage on the hammer.
It's my understanding that there weren't many (if any) DAO handguns when they started the practice, and they just went to autos by the time there were enough to get good prices on.
A dealer tried to tell me that .38 Special is a higher-velocity round than 9mm--just look at the case capacity!
Heard one tell someone else that a 20 gauge with slugs is a better choice for HD than a 12gauge with 00 shot--it kicked less, and the slugs had too much surface area to penetrate the walls.
