In this video, we discuss The Advantages of Striker-Fired Pistols.
There are several variations on the defensive handgun, from single-action to double-action, short trigger to long trigger, and hammer vs. modern striker-fired guns. If you want a gun that is easy to operate, comfortable for your hand, and has a trigger that is neither too light nor too heavy, a modern striker-fired pistol is exactly what you need. Rob Pincus discusses the advantages of owning and operating a modern striker-fired pistol. He explains why it prevails over some of the oldest and most famous styles of handguns, such as the revolver and the single-action gun.
Simply being a good shooter is not enough if you are truly interested in personal defense. An emphasis on static shooting skill can result in an overconfidence in one’s ability to protect themselves or others. Along the same lines, spending inordinate amounts of training resources (time, budget, etc.) on developing high-level shooting skills can mean ignoring other aspects of personal defense training in the areas of unarmed defense, situational awareness, or emergency medicine which could be more useful than marksmanship skills in a variety of circumstances.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with being a good shooter, but it is a myth to think that having great marksmanship automatically means that you are prepared to defend yourself.
