Springfield Armory Unveiling New Handgun at NRA Convention

[Kahrnut]

When I held it today, that the first thing I noticed. The next thing was the creepy trigger. Btw, the safety is also a decocker......there no way that could go bad....

If you're going to have a safety, there needs to be a stop when to get to fire......no a ****ing decocking function.

That would put it in a category with a CZ-75, etc., for 'cocked & locked'.

CZ's have one or the other, safety or decocker. I understand why they did it that way now.

Awful. Is this the best hammer pistol Croatians are capable of producing?
They made Tokarev for years. You would think they could come up with something better.
Look like a KelTek that went thru a dryer.

That new baby HK VP9 (I forget what they call it) is pure awesome sauce! Man, that thing is SWEET!

Yes it is! I finger fondled that, the SIG 320 and S&W 2.0. The HK was awesome and I think I'm going to pick one up soon.

The coolest thing was the Ruger Takedown Barrel, with integral suppressor......


I wanted to take it home to try out.

What's wrong with a decocking safety? Always worked just fine for Beretta and S&W.

I've never handled a Canik until today. I don't know jack about them, but I was mighty impressed. The trigger in that thing is in VP9/PPQ territory...and that's saying something.

Yes they do. However, both of those are or near full size and the safeties are large and mounted on the slide. Both of them in my opinion, are easier to manipulate because of it. But I stand corrected. That being said, I still think it's a dumb ass gun and serves really no niche.

I think HK has it figured out also.
