Have a P229 in 40 SW DAK and a P229 in 9 mm DA/SA with the SRT. Went to the range this weekend and shot both. The 9mm was a dream to shoot - although, a few times, even with solid finger control, in SA, the firearm fired without me fully on target (still down range but not fully on target). Perhaps I'm not used to the SRT (new install). The DAK was more challenging to shoot, to me, it wasn't a smooth follow-up shot, still very accurate but not nearly as smooth as the DA/SA. The DAK is relatively new to me - ~3 range trips. I understand the recoil differences between the two calibers - so I'm trying to take that into consideration. I carry the DAK most often, and a P365 the other times (gym shorts, sweats - no belt situations). I like the 40SW as a caliber and would prefer to keep that as my EDC and I have full confidence in my ability to shoot it, accurately, when necessary, to protect myself or loved ones.
My question: should I continue to gain more experience with the DAK trigger system or should I send the firearm to Sig to convert to DA/SA, ie: is a DAK a better choice for an EDC for an old guy like me? This is not meant to be a DAK vs DA/SA discussion - but a 'how long should it take to get used to a new trigger system....'.
