May seem like a dumb question and it certainly does not pertain directly to the subject of the thread, but is your preference for hammer-fired pistols due to their being shot single-action, and hence are more accurate due to better triggers? Or is there something inherent in hammer-fired weapons that makes them more conducive to accurate shooting for you? Reason I'm asking, I'm considering a Security 9 which is hammer fired, but not single action.
