Hi all,
Normally I am a 1911 fan but I am considering a "DAO" type handgun (by DAO I mean everything from glock to H&K LEM). It is looking like my department is going to start allowing us to carry our choice of weapon
We have been a Sig DA/SA department.
I plan on going to the range and renting a couple but I don't have the money to rent all of them so I thought I would ask for some input to narrow it down.
I have shot glocks in the past and I don't shoot very well with them (maybe I will never shoot as well with a DAO type handgun when comparing it to a 1911...).
Since I work in corrections I will probably carry my gun more off duty than on duty so I am looking for something big enough for a duty weapon but still concealable. (I know I could get two guns but I believe it is better to stick with one if possible.)
In the end it all comes down to trigger pull. I know many of you have fired and own many of the "DAO" handguns currently on the market. What do you shoot best with and why? How do trigger pulls compare on the Glock, XD, H&K LEM, Para LDA, etc?
Thanks!
