Does anyone have any experience with a Daewoo handgun. i am looking at getting a 40 cal. and the daewoo is failry inexpensive. I just don't know anything about them.

Never heard of them. Did a Google Search on Daewoo Firearms. Some info out there on them.

Daewoo DH40 (.40S&W)

No direct experience, but a gunshop owner friend has carried a fired quite a few. The tri-action is a neat idea, but the guns just never seemed to catch on. The ones I have seen do seem to be well made. Fit and finish is as good as any of the wunderkind German/Swiss handguns.

I carried a DH40 back home on the Sherrif's Dept for a few years, it was accurate, fit and finish was very good(better than some). I didn't have any problems with the Tri-Action feature or the gun at all. Recoil was a bit snappy due in part to the alloy frame with the 40 S&W. Grip felt a lot like a 92 Taurus/Beretta. I always said it looked like a cross between a S&W 6906 and a Taurus/Beretta 92. All in all I liked it very much.

My property company issues the Daewoo to executives who have to deal with squatters.

The advertisement the Daewoo comes with reads : "Proven on the Korean Peninsula where the targets shoot back."
