Hey Terry,

Good to hear your range story.

I have a Sig 226 which I do like quite a bit. In double action, it does have a long pull, but this shortens somewhat on single action.

If all your friend's pistols were brand new, know that it sometimes takes a few hundred rounds before everything settles and wears in on a new gun.

There are basic design issues that would prevent me from wanting to carry a Luger as a CCH firearm.

If you are a fan of very short trigger pull, and want a .45, the best you can get is a well made M1911A1 pistol. My own preference is for Springfield Armory made 1911s, but you'll find a range of good ones available. A "Commander" size M1911A1 makes a good carry firearm.

Obviously the grip angle and side ejection of a M1911A1 is quite different when compared with your Luger.

Marc
