How desirable, in your opinion, is having a low bore axis and quick trigger reset in a serious handgun. I say "serious" to distinguish between plinking, bullseye, fun things, etc. This is a handgun to be used for protection.
Given that two handguns are equally tough and reliable and have good triggers, does the reset of the trigger necessarily come into play? I have heard that some experts feel that it actually isn't that important, as they let out a little more of the trigger just to be sure they aren't going to short stroke and don't necessarily rely on the quick reset.
Regarding the bore axis... I've seen some pretty quick shooting with revolvers and pistols that have a higher bore axis relative to Glock or the P7 series... so is low bore axis really that big of a deal or is it just a minor part of the overall ball game?
Skills trump gear, but should you consider reset and axis as important features in looking for a "serious pistol?" My current one... a USP .45 has neither a quick reset or low bore axis, but it shoots faster than I for the time being...
