Kahrtalk doesn't have a virtual gun range so use your memory and imagination.
today we're here at the range for gun testing. you get to fire and rate a number of unmarked guns. at each station there is a box sitting on the bench, you reach in thru the hole and find a gun on a shelf, the other end of the box is open and there's a target 12 yds. away. you pick up the pistol, get a grip, aim the laser at the target and in a minute or less, shoot 3 shots. rate the gun for feel, trigger pull, use it for range or carry or toss it in the dumpster.
1- glock, 2- ruger LCP, 3-XD, 4-model 60 S&W, 5- Kahr, 6- Sig 290, 7-Kel-tec, 8-1911(decent but average example), 9-Walther PPQ, 10-SCCY, 11- whatever.
my guess is that anybody taking the test would be able to figure out the Single Action feeling guns from the Double Action feeling guns. then rate each group. further guessing would say the PPQ and the 1911 would fight it out for SA honors. the Kahr and the S&W60 would be a match in the DA group. SA guns would get the vote for range guns, DA would get the vote for carry guns.
(anybody who shoots should have a funny story about a cheap DAO gun that needed a crowbar to work the trigger. should also have a slightly scary story about a Bang!Yikes! 2lbs. trigger SA gun.)
