An important question for all of you guys from someone new to guns,
I was looking around in a gun shop today, almost confident that I was to purchase a new pistol, when my eye fell on the HK P2000. It fit incredibly well in my hand, and I liked the 40 caliber stamped on the side compared to the 38 special that I was looking to purchase.
One of the big things that attracted me to this gun was "And in case of an ammunition-related failure to fire, all that is needed is an additional second or third pull of the trigger without the need of first pulling the slide back to re-cock the P2000. The enhanced LEM trigger system combines the reliability of a double action revolver trigger with the crisp, precise trigger of a single action pistol."
Does that mean this pistol is just as reliable as a revolver? I am not sure how this works in a failure to eject/feed etc. How does this differ from pistols I am used to ie traditional DA/SA. Finally, would one recommend this pistol to a beginner for carry?
Thanks alot guys
