Anyone still using a DA/SA pistol?

DA/SA is what got me comfortable to carry with one in the chamber; knowing I had the safety of the long DA first pull, but the option to cock the hammer for that first shot if possible.

I carry a P239 specifically for the DA/SA aspect of it. I shoot it a lot at the range. It shoots really well and has light recoil.

Also, my Beretta 92 and P226 DA/SA will always be in my safe and rotated in as what I'll grab for bump in the night.

Carrying my P239 is pretty much how I became comfortable to carry strikers with one in the chamber nowadays. My P239 will always have a place in my heart. And despite its weight, in a good holster, it really just flattens out and feels like nothing more than a pancake inside my waist band. There are definitely options that carry easier and have more capacity than the P239, but not with the DA/SA option and the sweet shootability of the P239.

Same here. I own several Glocks and really like them. But I keep going back to my 239 for off duty carry. I put a SRT and an Armory Craft flat trigger in mine and it is a fantastic gun for those two reasons as well as the reasons you mentioned.

I carry Langdon 92 Compact DAO .

What holster do you carry it in?

I carry Langdon 92 Compact DAO that Ernest did for me a few years back..

I'm totally jealous! Maybe one of these days I'll unload some junk and buy something nice...

I still have a place in my heart for DA/SA autos and have several in the collection. I don't carry them ever or really even shoot them that much anymore but I love them all the same.

Many of my pistols are DA/SA. Nothing wrong with that at all.

The handgun that I shoot and carry the most is my CZ P01 with a decocker. I originally bought it for appendix carry. When I’m shooting steel for time I usually never notice the difference between sa and da. Also great for dry fire practice. I shoot it better that most striker fired, except HK P7, just not as well as a sao.

It pisses off the RO's sometimes but I will cock the hammer on the draw with my SIG if the opportunity presents itself.

I do the same thing with my old "trusty" FNP !!!!!!
