TSW-DAO's,how are they?

Particularly the trigger.

I have a 5943TSW and a standard third generation 5946. To me, the triggers are about the same. Accuracy is also about the same with these two guns. Reliability? Never had a problem with either. Which do I like better? The non-TSW. Just can't get to liking that rail.

Older TSW's don't have the rail.

Older TSW's don't have the rail.

I know. I have a 4013TSW w/o the rail. I was merely commenting on current/recent production guns. I thought the rail would kind of grow on me as I worked with the gun (it didn't).

I am also interested in the triggers. Anyone else care to chime in on how the dao triggers feel -weight, travel etc... How do they compare to say an xd or glock trigger?

Better than a Glock trigger but not as good as a SIG or Beretta DAO trigger.

SouthpawShootr, I got two 4013TSW without the rail -- love that gun.

Not nearly as light as the Glock factory trigger. About the same as the NY1 trigger (I have that in my G22). With the S&W DAO trigger, you can count on a reasonably consistent pull throughout the course of the trigger travel. With Glocks, it's almost like a 2-stage triiger (this is because of the trigger safety). I also find that, with extended firing, the Glock trigger safety wears into my finger, although this is not a concern for defensive purposes. My XD9 trigger seems to be lighter than the Glock trigger and therefore the Smith trigger, however there does seem to be a pronounce mushy or spongy feel compared to the other two (this is not really so bad, the trigger safety does not do nearly as bad a number on my finger as the Glock). Don't have any experience with the Sig DAO trigger (all my Sigs are TDA).
