I won't mention any names but they rhyme with block and look like a 2x4 LOL

Despite their blocky appearance I've always found Glocks to be quite comfortable in my hand.

As far as the heavier DA pulls, it's been proven that with practice, one can master and be exceedingly accurate with them

I'll agree with that. Shooting revolvers DAO has been a satisfying challenge with the added benefit that it has greatly improved my pistol shooting.

The earliest one I know of was the Roth-Steyr 1907.

The C93 Borchardt and Luger are both striker fired as well. In the early days of the automatic pistol the striker was pretty common. It wasn't until the 1930's that hammer fired pistols started to become the norm. I think the success of the 1911 was bolstered by the PP, P.38, and Hi Power.

But to answer the original question I'm the wrong person to ask. I didn't think Walther would ever make a .45 or bring back an all steel pistol either. They might suprise us yet.
