Is DA/SA the Cure for Glock Leg Syndrome?

Bob Owens at Bearing Arms remarks on what he sees as a growing trend among shooters: a move away from striker-fired pistols and back to double action/single action pistols for concealed carry. The reason is the extra margin of safety these guns give you with that first stiff trigger pull.

Here’s the video that started the discussion:

I personally think the cure for Glock leg is a grip safety, like on a 1911 or the Springfield XD line. But apart from reholstering, that DA trigger definitely gives you a extra margin of error when making a stressed-out “shoot or no-shoot” decision, which is exactly when you need it most.

I dunno. What do you guys think?
