What is the trigger pull weight on a DAO 226/228/229? Is it the same as the DA pull on a DA/SA version? | |||

Yes. The difference between the original style DAO hammer and a DA/SA hammer is the absence of the single action cocking notch in the former that keeps the hammer cocked after the first DA pull. Everything else about the mechanism is the same, except of course, the presence/absence of the decocker. The DAK system, though, is different in that, among other things, it increases the mechanical advantage of the system by moving the contact point between hammer and trigger bar somewhat farther from the hammer pivot point. That reduces the pull weight of the DAK system (unless the shooter uses the short trigger reset for follow-up shots after the first). ► 6.4/93.6 “ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one’s own understanding without another’s guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one’s own mind without another’s guidance.” — Immanuel Kant | |||

Thank you for the answer. I don’t know if removing the SA function would have any effect on the DAO pull weight. Like you, I prefer the DAK system. It’s easier for me to shoot than something like the HK LEM. | |||

For anyone interested, hammers.  I should redo this series, but if it isn’t clear due to the shadow, the difference between the conventional DA/SA hammer and the “sport” version is that the single action cocking notch of the sport is narrower. ► 6.4/93.6 “ Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed nonage.

Nope, not those. I no longer own the gun, but did keep pics of the grips, and will try to find them and post here. I was told on the forum they were very unusual and someone tried to buy them from me. IIRC they were identical to DA/SA grips in every way except no cutout on inside of left panel for decocker.

I like DAO Sigs too. The DAK was fine to shoot but dry firing required racking the slide partially to get the full DAK effect. The P250 has a nice DAO, always thought it was under appreciated. | |||
