There are a few companies that sell a CZ SRT kit that is really nothing more then the culmination of factory parts.Number 2 would be Beretta 92,
followed by CZ-75s (they'd be at the top if they could ever come up with a decent shorter, and shorter reset, trigger, like SIG, not to mention factory night sights)
The LTT Beretta's are worth the up-charge to me, but a simple (and less than $10) hammer spring swap makes a big difference if someone doesn't want to go full LTT on their Beretta.... the LTT Beretta is very nice. Stock Beretta, not so much.
When I first started carrying a pistol I had a Ruger P94 I had had for some time. I spent a lot of time with it learning the two triggers, etc. Then I decided to swap to striker fired pistols. The last several years most of my time has been spent shooting striker fired pistols because that is what I have been carrying. A year or so ago I was shooting with some people & got to shoot a S&W 669. It just felt right. Then I went to shoot with another couple of fellows I know. Down there I got to shoot a CZ-75BD & a P-07 as well as a HK MK 23. So now I am wanting a DA/SA. This has been made worse because my friend down South asked me to check a local shop to see if they had any CZ's in .40 or .45. I went & looked around. They had used 5906's, a evidence locker P-07 & Sig P-226. Not sure when I will buy. My daughter is starting winter semester at college Monday & I've been sitting on my pennies in case she needs help but I know it is inevitable I will buy something soon. I want to get something decent & more interesting than another striker fired pistol without breaking the bank. Which DA/SA pistols do you like/prefer?
Love every time you post pics of this beauty.
Cougar .45 is another used option.Taurus PT92. For a .22 the Ruger SR22 is a good choice.
If you want a. 45 DA/SA there's only a handful of options, one still being the Ruger P90. There's Beretta px4, Taurus TH45, and older S&W 59xx series.
GOOD SHOOTING!My favorites are my HK P30L, HK45, SIG P226 and SIG P228,. I have a CZ SP01 Shadow and it is a great shooter, though big and heavy, but has a safety and no decocker so I don't consider it DA/SA. You can get CZs with a decocker though but not both like with HK or Beretta.
Though I don't own a CZ P07 or P09 I have shot both and was impressed with them. For the prices they go for new today IMO they are well worth checking out if interested in quality DA/SA poly pistol. I see some sweet deals on nice used older "plain Jane" SIG DA/SA P series pistols.
As always though it is best to try out what you are considering to see how well it interfaces with you and how well you can shoot it.
It's not you. It's just become the a fad to be a trigger snob. I too can move between guns, and never had an issue with a trigger.Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I very rarely am ever "bothered" by a trigger - and I don't have an issue moving between guns. Maybe I'm just not sophisticated enough a shooter -- but I manage to put pretty good groups into targets with just about everything I own. (The only exception was the H&K USP 45 -- the trigger pull could be measured with an egg timer -- a huge disappointment after loving my P30 and HK45.)
That said, there's no easy answer to your question. You really can't go wrong, in my book, with any of the established brands: Sig, H&K, Beretta, CZ (and I have examples of each). Each gun feels different in my hand and has some benefits over the other -- I've never found the "perfect" gun for me. The Beretta PX4 seems to have the lowest felt recoil of any gun I've shot. The steel CZ's just feel solid in my hands. The HK45 and P30-series have great ergonomics that fit my hand like a glove. The Sig P226 and P220 are just easy to shoot.
My advice is try out as many of them as you can get your hands on - either by shooting with friends or renting them at a range. Then decide which one you like best (it will probably be tough!) and start with that. When your Gun Fund has some more pennies in it, you can add another.
I prefer my Sig M11-A1. My wife prefers her Sig P239.Which DA/SA pistols do you like/prefer?
The only metal frame Sig I like is the P239. Too bad sig killed it. I wish they kept it, but simply came out with a 10 round magazine.I prefer my Sig M11-A1. My wife prefers her Sig P239.
