I would have bet money that your gun would have been striker fired.
You may be right. Frankly, I can shoot the 226 really well. But right now, I’m shooting the 320 RMR at an extremely high level. I’ve shot almost 5k in a couple of months. I just completed day 1 of a Sage Dynamics Defensive RDS Course and I’m seeing an even larger performance boost.
It’s flat, fast and tight.
As much as I’d like to think it’s still the 226, I think you are probably right that it is something striker with an RMR on top. Glock, M&P, or 320.

I would also say I’m shooting the P320 really well both with the AXG and the Wilson frame modules in carry size.

monoblokDunno. I used to say 'Glock' as a general rule but I'm no longer sure of that. I've quickly become a damn trigger snob thanks in part to my earlier CZ 75 Shadow T-SA, P226 X-Fives and P210s, but it was the Alien that really has changed my lust for trigger greatness and upset that balance between all the rest of the traits, characteristics and qualities that makes any particular pistol "the champ" and even "the go-to". Certainly in my mind when it comes to triggers, that's a place that no Glock, despite any and all aftermarket efforts, will likely ever get to.
It also didn't help that during the lead-up to WA State magazine limit implementation I picked up multiple pistols with exquisite triggers. The trigger on the Wilson EDC X9 alone is truly something to behold, yet I didn't come close to stopping there...oh well.

Brian87My Dan Wesson valor 9mm case color hardened. When not shooting it, it is my display gun.

hlb14HK's P30 does everything I need. Yes the trigger isn't the best, but I shoot it well and it goes bang every time.

BillyBonesNYThe handgun I have ready to use is a Glock 21 SF RTF2.
My favorite handgun, toss up between BHP and Colt SAA.

It does show how times change. 6 years later without a doubt it’s a Gen5 G17 with an RMR06. Also amazing how training has changed in that time.

First SIG (2011) started life as a .22, then .40, 9mm, and then .357. Do All.

Is that MRDS on that rail the right way? Seems like it'd be backwards installed like that.

My son is an instructor at a large metro department. They recently switched pistols and transitioned to performance based training. I believe the response has been overwhelmingly positive.
