DA/SA practice

Normally just SA.

Anyone have a good way to decock a SP-01? doesnt come with a decocker.

iirc, the tactical model has a decocker. You can always hold the hammer and ease it back as you pull the trigger but I would advise just shooting it like a 1911.

fair enough. Im worried about NDing if the hammer slips

wow, that's the hottest dark skin I've ever seen

I carry an LH9 in DA+ so... sort of both?

>continue to lower hammer
The sear should catch the hammer before it falls all the way, and the firing pin block will be re-engaged anyway. Always point in a safe direction, of course.

They have a half cock, take some practice to avoid just getting stuck on that, but it'll still give you a DA pull then.

"Half cock" is a very loose term for it, it's nowhere near half. But if you read follow what I described, it will place the hammer there.

I did when my primary carry piece was a PPKS. First shot double action. Safety decocker etc.

Switched to a striker fired about 5 years ago tho.

cz 75s are easy as fuck to manually decock. stick thumb between hammer and slide, pull trigger, fully release trigger. move finger hammer drops to halfcock.
practice a it few times

I practice the transition, I've got plenty of DA pistols do it isn't extremely different for me.

I do DA to SA since in some IDPA matches you have to start in DA if your pistol is DA/SA. It also makes more sense since it takes longer to chamber a round and get on target or partial break your grip to pull the hammer than just to have a long first pull.

I carry a USPC. In dry fire I just shoot DA.
When I go to the range though I spend a decent amount of time going from the DA to SA shot after reading up on it from, I think, Langdon or some people over at pistoltraining.

Makes a big difference because a lot of people do end up having a very clean DA shot and then throwing that SA shot by mistake. I think it's related to flinch, people snatch the trigger with more force expecting a heavier/longer DA pull rather than focusing on just a smooth pull regardless of the trigger type.

>Langdon or some people over at pistoltraining.

His three part double action video on his youtube page is gold. That and Lucky Gunner's series on DA/SA pistols too are both incredibly good videos.

If Langdon ever hosts a pistol class in Florida, I'm signing up in a heartbeat.
