Best Striker fired Trigger EVER PERIOD

[King Rat]

Can't disagree with this.

The secret’s out!

He's right.
But to me, if one existed, a striker fired whose trigger that was somehow close to being indistinguishable from a 1911 trigger, and also had a sweep down manual safety on it would reign supreme.

I’m so glad that debate has finally been settled.

If I wanted a all steel, compact single stack, 9mm, striker fired pistol with a great trigger, it would be a HK P7. Compares more closely to a T9 but that's pretty much a moot point.

A S&W M&P has a trigger pull VERY close to a 1911.

I've hear the 2.0 trigger is better (a lot better), than the first gen. But I've never before heard someone say it is close to a 1911. Have yet to hold one. Is your statement based on a manual safety model? Don't know if that makes a difference in the M&P world, but it might.

Agreed. There is no other handgun that is indistinguishable to a 1911. The Para Ordnance LDA might be the closest thing. It's a nothing long pull, like a Kahr up to a wall where it becomes a 1911. It has the down swept safety too.
I have 3, well actually 2 now, I gave my youngest son my favorite for graduation. When working none of the officer much cared for it, thought it was strange, maybe kind of like people who don't like the Kahr?

The closest thing to a 1911 trigger, that I have personally fired, is the CZ Shadow II. 3.5 pounds, short and sweet. The Sig Legion is supposed to be close also, but have never fired one. (None are striker fired)

HK P7 trigger is outstanding.
But the squeeze cocking for some reason was off putting for me.
So I never bought one.

I really like my MK40 Elite trigger.
But it doesn't really compare to my Dan Wesson V-Bob.

Everything else I've got (striker fired) really doesn't come close.

Only trigger I've got that compares (1911) isn't striker at all.
That would be My S&W 629-2 44 Mag Mountain Revolver.
And it has a professional trigger job and an over-travel adjustable trigger.
Plus with over 1K rounds down the pipe.
The stainless steel gun seems to have polished the internals even more.
Now the trigger's so light I don't like letting anyone else shoot it :eek:
On my best day, at close range, I emptied a cylinder of 6 magnum rounds into a single ragged hole :cool:

Nice revolver Barth.
Seems that Kahr triggers have always been compared to the best revolver DA triggers, even though they're neither truly DA nor SA. But the buttery action just completely hides the point when the precocked tension is taken up and then increased. I think that was at least one of Justin's 6 patents on the K9 wasn't it?

[kenemoore]

I have found the Kahr trigger, to be great for teaching newbies. There is no stacking, so they cannot anticipate the break, and tend to flinch less. Might be why I love it too. :-)

[dao]

Good point Ken, hadn't thought of it in just that way.

Unfortunately the reality is that if the trigger isn't strike-fired, audible, and 2-4 pounds with a short take up and reset, it's seen as a TERRIBLE trigger by the majority of the firearm community.
