Striker for fun and the range, hammer for carry and defense. I do sometimes carry a striker for backup, Glock 43.

Doesn’t the hammer get hung up on clothes sometimes? the favorite caliber of yours I would like to hear. 40s mine.
but a big bore revolver is so expensive, compared to a Glock.

My carry weapon is a Sig P220 double action only with an hammer that doesn't protrude. I also carry regular P220. Both in .45. I carry a. 40 glock in my glove box and either a sbr Serbian AK in 5.56 or a 7.62 sbr galil as a "truck gun".

My favorite revolver at the moment is a S&W 610 in 10mm that will also shoot .40 S&W with moon clips.

You must have a lot of crime there. Here too but I don’t see it . You are ready. Here’s hoping they don’t come breaking through my doors. They say the only crime in this little community is kids when you leave your doors unlocked. I’d be kind of nervous carrying a gun all the time. Don’t want to kill one of them kids but we have criminals rights here. Kill a criminal for a non capital crime go to jail in a lot of circumstances. A lot of people are getting CCW in my county. My pastors are looking for them to protect the services. With training. It sounds right.

I have only owned 2 Striker Fired pistols, both were High Standard .22s. LOL. While I love them, I have always gravitated to steel hammer fired guns and revolvers. The weight, balance and how they fit has always been most important to me. Not all hammer guns are created equal... While I love de-cockers, I have never been overly impressed with factory triggers on any of the P226s or Beretta 96s I have shot. For IDPA and PPC I am a recreational competitor and mix it up shooting a CZ75 clone, a 1911 and a Ruger GP100; all three favorites! I point them, pull the trigger, and hit the target, for these three it is so natural for me. For bulls eye, my HS is the best I have ever shot. If I could only keep one, I could not choose.
