I have a Davis 380 with only a couple hundred rounds through it and it does the same thing. The safety engages itself after firing a couple shots. Have to hold it in place when shooting.For what it's worth, we had a guy in our last steel match shooting a P365 with a manual safety, and it was engaging itself just about every other or second other round. At first, we all naturally assumed his thumb was bumping it, so he made a deliberate attempt to ride it down. That wasn't very feasible because the lever is so small, and it didn't make a difference. Then, he lowered his grip...a lot, and it kept happening.
In hindsight, I wish we had videoed him and tried to catch a shot with the super slow-mo these newfangled phones have and also gotten someone else to shoot it. But, he was gripping it so low, and there were so many eyes watching intently, I'm confident it wasn't his thumb doing it. He said he was going to send it back to SIG. Hopefully he'll have an answer by the next match.
Anybody else have similar experiences? I know that was only one example, but it made me glad my P365 never had a manual safety...and I don't think any of my next ones will.

You should try a p99as, it has a long take up if in single action, a long heavier take if in double action. But the reset is very short for rapid fire.What 'little bar'?
The average OEM seems to be between 4.5 and 5.5 pounds. It's a two stage, with some light take-up, then it meets some resistance and fires with a little additional pressure.
Yes.
I don't want a safety either, and proved that to myself yet again. I'm used to DA/SA revolvers and DA/SA semi-autos.
Canik TP9DA is the current version of that striker DA/SA concept. Same proportions as a 19X. You actually have two different options for a longer first pull...either a full DA stroke or you can cock the striker with a half rack but release the trigger fully forward. Only downside of the gun is you can't put an optic because the decocker is on the top/left side.You should try a p99as, it has a long take up if in single action, a long heavier take if in double action.

Here's mine.
Oh, gotcha...Per Spaceballs:
It must be pressed in to allow the striker to fire. The only thing that can press it in is a little bar attached to the trigger. If the trigger isn't pulled the gun cannot fire.
A cocked and locked 1911 needs the safety switched off, the grip safety grabbed, and the trigger pulled to fire.So, how different really is the risk with a series 80 1911 compared to some of these striker fired guns? I know the recommendation is cocked and locked, but is the risk of it going off unintentionally in condition 0 really any greater that no safety on a striker fired gun? It would seem the trigger has to move for either one to fire.
And just for posterity.....
This means the striker cannot fall unless the trigger is rearward, trigger bar rocking the bottom safety lever, top of the safety lever pressing the striker safety upward and clearing the way for the striker to reach the primer.
