I have been looking for a concealed carry pistol with the following characteristics:
1 Dimensions of no greater than 6.25" long X 1.25" wide X 5.25" tall
2 Caliber in order of preference, 45acp, 40s&w, 9mm(MUST be able to shoot +P)
3 Capacity of no less than 10 rounds in magazine.
4 Action must be DAO or DA/SA(NOT SA/DA) with second strike capability. Needs a 9lb+ DA trigger pull.
5 Price of no more than $450 out the door with a total of 3 magazines. If it only comes with one or 2 mags, I will buy more to equal 3 and it must equal the stated price.
6 Must be a durable and reliable gun. I have reservations about Kel-tec. Yes, I know a lot of people have good luck with them, but a lot of people have bad luch with them too. I wont say absolutly no Kel-tecs though, but I am looking for other options.
7 NO magazine disconnect safety!!! Stupid lawyer crap!!
8 NO GLOCKS. Just in case you think that the Glock is DAO just because the ATFE says so, let me tell you right now that they arent. They are 62% cocked when a round is chambered and only have a 5.5lb trigger pull. They do not have second strike capability. I tried the NY1 and NY2 trigger in my glock and do not like them. I will NOT walk around or sit around with a loaded cocked(62%) weapon pointing at people. Its a psychological thing, not rational, so dont try to change my mind.
The only thing I have seen thus far is the Taurus PT-140 and PT-145, but I cant get a straight answer out of their "customer service" minimum wage monkeys as to whether they are DAO, DA/SA or SA/DA(single action only, but with second strike ability). Plus, I cant find any right now.
I can wait if necessary, but want to get something before summer for sure. I know I am picky, but I want what I want, and I am the customer.
Any suggestions? PLEASE
