carry pistol IWB
What I would like is a pistol that can be IWB carry so (40cal compact) with a hammer (decocker) function. At this time what I see available is striker fire type pistols. I was looking at the FN line but the hammer line are to big, also the SR40C is prefect but striker fire. So is there a make out there that I am missing, thank you for the help.

You can go "old school" and lop off the hammer spur flush to the slide. Or at the very least "bob" it. 0 -

Perfect that's what I was looking for, I did not see them at the shops I go to but I will check them out. Thank you for the info quote:Originally posted by Hawk Carse

What you are looking for is a Sig Sauer 239...can be had in 9mm, 40 S&W, and 357 Sig., and in a variety of finishes.

My choice is the Sig P239. It's compact, accurate and reliable. It can be easily changed to 9MM, .40 S&W or .357 Sig with a simple barrel swap.
Not exactly true. the 9mm, has a different head/rim size than the 40 S&W, 357 Sig. The extractor is not like that of the Glock17/22, that can accommodate either head size.0 -
There are TONS of second & third generation S&W autos (pre M&P style) with decockers. Many can be had for under $400 on the auction side. Several already have bobbed hammers too. You can even find new in box versiona that were never fired. The SIG is a great gun too. The Beretta PX Storm and H&K USP compacts also have decockers. 0 -
Look at The S&W 4000 series in 40. Very flat for IWB carry [;)] 0 -
Another vote for the Sig P-239. I have been carrying one for more than 10 years IWB old school "cop" carry - no holster, just a good leather belt slipped in behind my hip bone. Mine is a .40, but I have a .357 barrel as well. Very accurate and totally reliable pistol! 0 -

There are any number of compact .40SW guns that have external hammers and decocking safeties:
-Smith "number" autos
-Beretta PX4-Storm (formerly 9000)
-Sig 239
-CZ RAMI with decocker
-Ruger P series autos
HK, FN, Taurus all also have models that fit.
Walther P99 has an internal striker (with feelable cocking indicator), but uses a traditional DA/SA action with a decocker, so it functions basically like a hammered pistol.
I'm sure there are others.0
