What other semi-autos have the trigger reset design?

Besides Glock, what other semi-autos have the trigger reset mechanism?

For those that are unfamiliar with trigger reset: Each time a trigger is squeezed it must be reset in order to fire again; and it is at that point where you can keep your finger to creep forward and fire at a short distance. Therefore, follow up shots are more accurate and steady.

Thanks.

All autoloader (both pistol and rifle) trigger designs have this reset. The issue is whether the reset is short (ala Glocks or 1911s) or long (as with Sigs and some HKs). Some of the long resets can be worked on so it's not as bad.

All semi auto triggers, both rifles and pistols, have to be reset to fire the next shot.

Can you recommend some brands?

I shot and HK USP in .40S&W caliber and noticed that it didn't have a defining trigger reset; perhaps because it was in SA. That little "creep", as I forwarded the trigger wasn't that noticeable.

Maybe I'm just having a brain fart.:banghead:

Think of it this way......if the trigger didn't reset then it would have to be fully automatic to fire the second shot. All semi and fully auto guns triggers reset at some point. Just be glad your brain only farted.

All semi-auto pistols will have varying distances of trigger reset, the Glock platform, and 1911 has the shortest trigger reset. Some of the longest trigger reset, such as the SIG P-series and HK USP/P2000 will have resets that come close to letting the trigger out all of the way.

A competant smith (Grayguns) can reduce the trigger reset on the SIGs so that it's even shorter than a Glock and almost comparable to a 1911 reset.

Some trigger resets can have that distinctive "click" as you reset the trigger, others aren't as noticeable and feel more mushy. The S&W M&P is an example of a mushy trigger reset.

CountGlockula, I don't know how experienced a shooter you are, so forgive me if I'm off base here. Speaking for myself, for the first couple of years, even with thousands and thousands and thousands of rounds downrange, I never noticed the reset. I read discussions about it, I knew what it was, technically, but I didn't perceive it. A year or two later, now I do. Although I don't mind the long reset of SIG triggers, for example, at all, I definitely notice them "clanking" back into place after each shot.

Personally, I don't think it's a big issue except perhaps in a competition environment, or for true "operators", where a shorter reset allows for quicker shooting. That is to say, quick and accurate shooting beyond the ability or needs of the average shooter, defensive or recreational. Other than those areas, it's mostly subjective "feel", in my view.

all H&K USP's do. I have a few and just shot them the other day.
The just do not have one as sweet as a Glock's.

1911, as has been mentioned, is one of the best, and similar, distance wise, to the Glock if that's what you're most experienced with.

Some of the longest trigger reset, such as the SIG P-series and HK USP/P2000 will have resets that come close to letting the trigger out all of the way.

Also the Taurus 24/7 (may not apply to the "Pro" models) -- I picked up one of the 45 cal ones and was really impressed with the overall dimensions for a double-stack, high capacity 45 cal pistol, but trigger reset was literally all the way forward again, with no ability to stage it at all.

The Walther P99 AS (the DA/SA model) has a very nice short and crisp trigger reset (very similar to a Glock's). I really enjoy shooting my Walther P99 AS 9mm (very nice SA trigger pull). I would highly recommend this pistol. I can't remember how the trigger reset is on the Walther P99 QA (DAO model) (I dry fired one once in a gun shop, put I can't remember how the trigger reset felt (the trigger pull was heavier than a Glock's if I remember right)).

SIG's with the new SRT have a very nice and short (and positive) reset. 3rd Gen S&W auto's also have a nice one.
