Wondering if there are any other hammer-fired DAO pistol other than the Sig p250.
It doesn't have to be "cocked" to shoot like the S&W DAOs do (I have a 3953, 6946, and 4046 and all have to have the hammer back to fire and THAT ain't no way to carry as it negates the long and somewhat heavier double action revolver-like pull); and it isn't a DA/SA striker-fired pistol ala the Walther P99 (which will shoot DAO [then SA in follow up shots] or SA if you pull back on the slide and that ain't safe to carry either); and it isn't a striker fired gun.
I really like my 250s -- have them in .22LR, 9mm and .40 (switching around slides and mags off of a single fire control mechanism) but I'm curious if there are any other 250 like guns out there . (Obviously revolvers are just that -- double action or single if you pull back on the hammer -- but I'm thinking pistols here.)
I can put a 3913 slide with a manual safety atop the 3953 frame and that gives me a mechanical safety as well as the long double action pull inherent in the gun but curiosity has driven me to ask the question here.
