I live in Utah, will soon move to California. I'm not excited about having to buy a gun with a magazine disconnect. I'm just wondering what the pros and cons are to everyone. I don't see any pros. My biggest con is that I don't want an extra part, and I don't want it to affect trigger feel. I don't have a gun with one, so for those who do, does it affect the trigger feel on your particular model?
Here's a pro I've heard a lot, that I find bizarre: people say that if they feel that losing their gun is imminent, they can push the mag release to render the gun useless. I just don't see how that would come into play. Would you be mid-struggle, and think in your mind, "It appears this villain is nearly gaining the upper hand, and soon will have taken my gun from me. I have no confidence in my ability to retain it any longer. I shall push the magazine disconnect now!" It seems so far-fetched. Am I alone in this thought?
