Frequently Asked Questions

Is the SAR USA B6C a good option for concealed carry?

The SAR USA B6C can be a viable carry option, especially after addressing initial concerns like a stiff safety that softens with use. Finding a comfortable and functional holster is crucial, and practice with its DA/SA trigger system is recommended for proficiency.

What are the key features of the SAR USA B6C's trigger system?

The SAR USA B6C features a Double Action/Single Action (DA/SA) trigger. The double-action pull is heavier, while the single-action pull is lighter and crisper. The trigger reset is described as having a definitive click but with a longer travel, requiring deliberate control for follow-up shots.

How does ammunition affect the reliability of the SAR USA B6C?

What is a controlled pairs drill and how is it performed?

A controlled pairs drill involves firing two shots in rapid succession while maintaining sight alignment and trigger control. The drill typically starts from a low ready, brings the firearm to a sight picture, fires two shots, and returns to low ready. It's used to practice accurate follow-up shots under time pressure.
