HK DA/SA vs LEM: Which one is for you?

IT's a question I get a lot. So I made a video about it. It's always a good day when I get to shoot the HK's. I reused shooting footage because 45acp is still $50 a box......sorry..... Didn't have any ducks in the house this time, I'm starting to get concerned. Also did I make it through a video without cussing?

    @@navyman8903 On July first, FL will be another permit-less carry state. Thanks, in part, to our governor. For decades, Floridians have been carrying guns concealed, after getting a permit. Floridians with carry permits commit fewer crimes than those with no permit. I am thinking we may have been better off if we had left it like it was. After decades, it has proven to work well. We will see what happens. I know, if ONE person does something stupid, it will be all over the national news. Even if the overall results are great. The fact is, they want our guns for the same reasons Hitler took the Jews' guns. FDR was the first to go after our guns. He also refused to save any Jews. Read The Jews Should Keep Quiet.

    I have lem on my p30s. The only adjustment for me was repetition for holster and draw with my thumb on the hammer. After thousands of repetitions, I covered all of the safety features of the da/sa, via muscle memory, with all of the speed benefits of the lem. It simply won't fire with your thumb on the hammer. That said, my set up is such that I cannot pull back the hammer with my thumb as you were doing, even though it is supposedly a "light lem." It doesn't move without the trigger unless I pry it back with a tool. P30 V1 is all I need it to be.

Glocks do it all the time. If it makes you nervous to carry a gun without a safety, then train better. 😂 I heard one idiot say that I need a safety on my gun because I have children.

    If your into DA/SA guns isnt having a heavy trigger on the first shot kind of the whole point? Not attacking your opinion here, just trying to understand what the point of the lem is when the first pull is so light. I also think that the trigger going all the way back forward on the follow up shots would drive me crazy lol and I am not a trigger slapper....

    From my findings in regards to HK pistols in stock configuration. Best trigger goes to the P7 series. Best SA/DA goes to the Mark 23. Worst trigger goes to the P30. Worst trigger system ever goes to the LEM. Maybe tied with the Sig DAK.

I am an old person with much experience with many fire arms and many situations. these days i mostly am single action revolver as my personal greatest threat has been woodchucks digging at building foundations. i often carry a sig with an empty chamber around the farm. i have cameras and space that allow me time to decide if i should rack one. so on topic with which one is for you, only you decide
