I briefly thought about carrying my P226. But the fact is I just plain don't shoot that first (decocked) shot very well and that 1st shot needs to be on target. I do carry a HK VP9 striker fire which affords me the same trigger pull for 1st and all. I know I could carry the P226 cocked, but with no additional safety option I am reluctant. And for that matter, I think the safety features on striker fired pistols is minimal at best. So, the determining factor was the VP9 trigger pull and the slightly better concealment capability.

Just curious to see how many people on here stick to their hammer fired SIGs. Nothing else feels as great to me. Although, Heckler and Koch is a nice tie / 2nd place.

I have to respectfully disagree. I believe you need to de-cock after every two or three shots. The sig’s trigger pulls, both double action and single action are pretty good. They are just different. It’s the transition between the two that gets you.Carrying a Condition 1 DA/SA is only a training issue. With most SIG pistol's excellent DA pull, practicing a lot (de-cocking after every shot and then simply pretending one is firing a revolver DA),
