They're generally cheaper and easier to work on at the armorer level.

I did say streamlined in my previous post but if I were in law enforcement I would take what was issued but do like having a hammer on a sidearm, In the holster this is not a problem but for my backup weapon it would be striker fired as there is less for it to snag on clothing.

No "accidental discharges" because of a "light" trigger, when hammer is cocked.
