BUL AXE C Hatchet
An Israeli-made 2011 platform — a 1911-style single-action hammer-fired action with a double-stack magazine. The trigger here belongs to a completely different world from any striker-fired pistol: short, clean, with no creep. For competitive shooters chasing accuracy, this is the step up. For someone who wants a simple carry gun, this isn't it.
What's good about it
- One of the best single-action triggers you can buy in Israel
- Competition-level accuracy
- Made in Israel — service and parts are local
What's less good
- Manual safety and cocked-and-locked carry — requires training and discipline
- Heavy and expensive
- Not suited to a first-time pistol owner
