Glocks are never DA. They can't be. Ever.
Sorry, my bad on the definition. I was referring to the longer trigger pull on first round.

What do you call striker fire gun triggers that are like glocks.
They start out Half cocked.
As You start to pull the trigger
Back it finishes cocking then brakes right.
So that's like half sa/half da right ?
Are there striker fire guns that are true sa?
It has been argued that the Springfield XD is striker-fired single action. I don't know enough about the details to argue whether that is true or not.
Didnt walther have something similar to a da/sa striker fired p99?

Do you even shoot?

Looking at my xds taken apart it almost seems like its sa.
There's a firing pin/striker block like a series 80 1911 That a tab on the trigger bar disengages. Also when I took the slide off it doesn't seem to pull the slide back at all when you pull the trigger to take the slide off.
With out a X-ray video can't say how far the trigger pulls the striker back while pulling.
What do I know tho .
This thread is so amusing to me...that video is PRICELESS.
You forgot 'bro'
That.
was.
AWESOME!!!!!!
The XDs and Glock are striker style handguns and is neither single nor double action. Think of it like a bolt action, all the trigger does is release the striker. You wouldn't call a bolt gun single action etc.
The original post didn't mention bro, the broism was added by meme revisionist bros who like to wear their sister's clothes.
Did I hurt your Glock's feelings?
I'd strongly advise against ball and dummy drills, as you won't be able to distinguish between a flinch and a normal post-ignition push. Where the bullet hits on target is all you need to know.

That's not my understanding. It is my understanding that the Glock is not at full cock. So pulling the trigger actually increases tension and then drops the striker. I've heard that is not true of the XD, however.
Correct. Pulling the trigger moves the partially cocked striker rearward, disengages the FP safety and drop safety, then when the trigger bar hits the connector, it cams down and the striker jumps forward under spring tension. I think "Safe Action" is really just double action, since the trigger cocks and releases the striker.
Yeah, the M&P triggers move the striker back so little that I wonder if the only point was that they could market them as DAO to the police market.

Guess I no longer have a theory for why they designed it that way then. Rats.They never marketed it as DAO when we were buying them, or during the armorers course.
