I've been searching on Walther's website and I can't figure out what it means by QA and AS triggers. What's the difference?
You are amazing, thank you!I've done a quick video demonstrating the AS trigger's different modes.
Nothing special, but hopefully explains how it works. If it's helpful - greatIf ya hate it - well, it's free

From a functional standpoint, i wouldn't worry about the gun deactivating accidentally. The QA decocker is a lot smaller than the AS, so it's a lot harder to press. It's only meant to be used for disassembly, not as a safety - though i've heard that a few people do use it that way (IMO, bad idea. but to each their own.)thorn,
I've been thinking about getting a QA, but does the fact that the pistol can be deactivated(so to speak by the decocker) give anyone pause? Perhaps, I'm not taking the ability to see the firing pin condition into account?

But it's a good question... has anyone that carries a QA ever had it decock accidentally?

Decocked the striker sits inside and can't be seen.Thorn,
Thanks for your excellent reply.
Can anyone with a QA tell me if the firing pin is visible when active and not visibile when deactivated? I suspect this would be the case, and I would be much more comfortable with a QA.![]()
Some people may do that. I wouldn't. Yes, it's a long pull but it doesn't take too much pressure. The spec sheet may say 4.4 lbs (or w/e) but it's the next best thing to effortless.Is it safe to CC the AS with the trigger in long SA mode?
I thanked you on youtube, but I feel it's necessary to thank you again. YOU MADE IT CLEAR! Thank you! I made a thread right before I found this link to the video...part of my question was about this. Thanks again!I've done a quick video demonstrating the AS trigger's different modes.

+1, yes you could carry it that way the question is whether or not it is wise. In my opinion, well, not so much...Some people may do that. I wouldn't. Yes, it's a long pull but it doesn't take too much pressure. The spec sheet may say 4.4 lbs (or w/e) but it's the next best thing to effortless.
