For defensive purposes: DA/SA metal framed pistols.
As "beaters" that see use/abuse around the ranch: Striker fired polymer framed pistols.
You just about have me convinced to buy a DA/SA with a trijiconPolymer framed DA/SA handguns
CZ P-09 for matches, P-07 for CCW.
They are Glock-stupid-simple to detail strip. Accuracy is on par with the CZ Shadow. Trigger job is DIY deal with polishing and deburring OEM parts or replacing them with Cajun Gun Works guts
PM is stupid simple:
In other words nothing that you wouldn't do any other other modern service handgun
- Clean every couple thousand rounds
- Change recoil and trigger return springs every 10K rounds
- Change slide stop every 30K rounds
- Remove, clean, inspect extractor every 10K rounds
One thing to be careful about: CZ DA/SA pistols with a firing pin block use a cross-slide roll pin to secure the firing pin. The firing pin never contacts the roll pin when it falls on a cartridge. Consistent dry fire without cushioning the firing pin will result in the firing pin striking the roll pin and eventually breaking it. Solution: always use cushioned snap caps or a small oring over the back of the firing pin when dry firing.

I do plan to try a rds on a handgun. Despite my “no need for sights inside 7 yards” that attracted so much attention in the other thread. I truly think it had its benefitsUnfortunately neither the P-07 nor the P-09 come optics ready from CZ.
I would send the slide and optic to Primary Machine for slide milling to accept the optic.
If you go with a Trijicon SRO, I strongly recomment that you opt for milling that removes the rear sight completely and slides the optic as far back on the slide. I had my P-09 milled with the optic in front of a Glock dovetail (the OEM dovetail gets wiped off anyway) and now I get a small soot smear on the glass after about 150 rounds.
If you go with an RMR, this is not a problem due to the shorter length of the optic.
The benefits will come only after one becomes proficient in using them the correct way.I do plan to try a rds on a handgun. Despite my “no need for sights inside 7 yards” that attracted so much attention in the other thread. I truly think it had its benefits
Shoot me a recommendation on what combo is best. I’m definitely considering trying one out. But honestly I’m an old school iron sights type of guy. The pressure to switch is real!The benefits will come only after one becomes proficient in using them the correct way.
Hit me up when you get a pistol setup and have any questions or wonder if you're doing things right.
I also recommend some training from someone who knows how to use one. Any shooter who has an A or higher classification in USPSA Carry Optics or Open can help you in person.

I looked at a glock 19 the other day that was optic ready. But I have a strange feeling your going to suggest CZWe can take this to PM later on, to get into more details

Glocks
This is my answer too.Favorite is a 1911.
I carry a glock...
9mm Luger Glocks due to inexpensive magazines.
I wish all of the above were available with RMR (RMRcc for the p365 line) cuts from the factories.
i have an rx slide for my p229 as well, but i only use it if i am shooting groups at 25 yds for proficiency testing my shooting (and not my eyes).I really like the modern striker pistols from cz, hk, sig, walther, beretta.
And I dig the p22(6, 8, 9), along with the hk p30, cz 07/09.

That there are.I don't worry about that any more, with a pool of extremely capable machine shops doing the modifications.

Nope, sorryDo you know anyone milling HK USP expert
.45 slides?
A matched pair of fully custom CZ-52's in full-power 7.62x25 mm Tokarev. Single-action triggers are crisp at 2 pounds. Thumb safety works fine, but decocking feature has been surgically removed. Recoil springs are 18.5 pounds. I completed all of the needed factory machining steps and polished everything internal. Spring loaded firing pin, locking rollers, and extractor are heat treated billet steel. Unreliable FP safety is disabled. A total of about $600 is invested in the pair. Sights are small but suitably fine for such an accurate pistol. New mags are cheap and available. Power of a 357 S&W Magnum (100 gr FMJ bullet at 1650 fps) with the accuracy of a SIG P210. Nine shots from each cocked and locked pistol. Anyone who wants to duplicate this with their CZ-52 shoot me a PM.
I don't compete, but love my CZ PCR. Like stated they are crazy simple to maintain, reliable as all get out, and fit the contour of my palm VERY well right out of the box. Also have a CZ Rami just for fun...Polymer framed DA/SA handguns

Your points are valid, but in all fairness every one of them can also be applied to most all early auto pistol designs, the Gov't model Colt 1911/1911a1 through series 70 and the BHP in particular.That's a good job polishing a turd
- Shit, obsolete ammo that overpenetrates and doesn't expand.
- No understanding of what makes a handgun bullet an effective one against tissue
- Not drop safe
- Single action only
- Shit sights
- No ability to accept a light
- No optics
- 9 rounds of shit obsolete ammo that overpenetrates and doesn't expand
