How many police and military agencies are switching to hammer fired pistols lately? Compare that number to the number of agencies switching to striker fired pistols.

It's really a function of cost. Striker-fired pistols are cheaper to manufacture, and allow lower bids to the buying agencies.

Shooting the snot out of my Kel-Tec P11 (8.5 lbs DAO) until I reliably could hit bullseye with it every time without having to work on it made a GREAT handgun shooter out of me. Makes shooting any gun with a lesser trigger pull weight completely effortless.

There is enormous wisdom in this. Fire 2,000 rounds out of any gun with poor sights and a stiff trigger pull at a silhouette 50 feet away, and routinely achieve instinctive head hits, and you'll become an immensely better shot.
