It is kind of hard to keep up with the different models of CZ pistols, but I believe the newer stainless model 75b pistols have a few different features when compared to the black polycoat models. The stainless models come with a larger mag release, an up-swept beavertail, and an ambidextrous...

Oh please. You admittedly didn't even know what the trigger safety did before a member here explained it to you. Yet that didn't stop you from first arguing that it was stupid and useless. The person you are describing, is yourself.

So all this time that I was trying to tell you that it was a drop safety, and thus, necessary for safety when dropped, I should have just told you that it was a drop safety, thus, necessary for safety when dropped. Next time I won't try to oversimplify it for you. Goodbye.

You obviously either ignored the rest of my post, or couldn't find an argument against it. From the first post: I don't see "if it was designed without one" anywhere in there. Nom de Forum, I appreciate the correction. I've discussed this with both Glock and S&W armorers previously, and...

It is a drop safety, first and foremost. That is all it is there to do. Arguing that the drop safety is there to stop things from snagging on the side of the trigger, is like arguing that the FPB is there to make the trigger pull heavier. It may accomplish this, but this was not its...

To this I'd ask, what makes you think so, and how was it a mistake? The Steyr M9 doesn't have a firing pin block safety design like the vast majority of striker fired pistols do. Does this mean that the FPB is also unnecessary, because one manufacturer hasn't incorporated it into one of their...

Somebody should call the vast majority of polymer striker fired pistol manufacturers and tell them that they could all save money by no longer designing pistols with "trigger safeties", as they are all as useless as this thread. It is a safety feature. To think that almost every polymer...

It is a drop safety, as has been explained many times on this thread already. I'm also not understanding why people don't want to believe this. Name a striker fired polymer pistol that doesn't have a "trigger safety". They aren't putting these things on the pistols for nothing.

I don't know who owns the forum, but I doubt it is Walther. Nobody there seems too compelled to defend the company. People speak highly about their pistols there, but nobody seems to have much praise for the company itself.

I'm an active member on the Walther forum, where almost everyone there, owns a Walther. Anyone can go there and see for themselves if owners of Walther pistols hold their tongue about speaking badly of Walther. Almost everyone on the PPQ section went to a PPQ from any manufacturer on the list...

I've got a little less than a thousand rounds through my EMP-9, but I had to send it back to Springfield for a few issues. The pistol came from the factory with an extractor that put absolutely no tension on the casing. I fixed this one myself by tensioning the extractor. I don't believe...

You wish. :D How about a few years ago, when a few prototypes were made, and brought into the country, eh? Were they German? Were they made by H&K? Why?

Whether or not H&K releases it, they made at least one, and were thinking about releasing it. If they released it, would it not be German? They are in the business to win contracts and to make money, and they at least had the thought in their minds that a push button mag release on a striker...

Right. :) But I was trying to make a point with that statement. For what it's worth, I don't think there is a universal, "better", mag release out of the two. Some will prefer one, and some will prefer the other. I'm a lefty, so I'm used to using my middle finger on any pistol that...

What if you're left handed, and you have a pistol with a push button mag release?

Umarex has owned Walther for 20 years. There is a big difference in quality, between the pistols that come out of the Umarex plant in Arnsberg, and the pistols that come out of the Walther plant in Ulm.

All P99 pistols are "non-Umarex".

I use my middle finger on all pistols with the paddle/lever style mag release. I prefer it to a push button mag release because I find it faster.

Even H&K would be willing to add a button release in order to penetrate the US market with their striker fired pistol. http://www.hkpro.com/forum/hk-handgun-talk/131124-striker-fired-p40.html Post #3: The reason why in post #8: Obviously, no progress seems to have been made with...
