    Absolutely THE most horrendous trigger pull I've ever felt on a firearm.

    As I recall it was double action only.

    Indeed. The heaviest, grittiest, nastiest double action I've ever pulled.

    I have one. Extremely hard trigger pull, but if the shtf, adrenalin will be pumping, you won't even notice.

    This gun is a legendary POS. I guess if you get it for $50 or free it would be fun to play with. Might be good for pistol whipping.

    It's hard enough to shoot straight when you're sliding in your own excrement without having to deal with that trigger. That comes from a revolver guy. I shoot double action triggers all the time, competition and defense. We are all adults here and everyone can make their own decisions, but I demand that equipment designed to save my life be of somewhat higher quality.

    Isn't the AMT now made by Kahr? Not a fun gun to shoot, but a good concealed piece especially if you get the wallet "holster".
