The SA model is technically a 75B SA, meaning it has the firing pin block. I own several pre-B pistols, and I prefer them to my SA, at least in the abstract. The B models all have hammer-cam from the firing pin block, so the SA mode is not a pure release of the hammer in a 75B SA. However, I believe my 75B SA was made to a higher standard than the old pre-Bs, and it is more accurate. I also like some of the SA model's features for the range, such as the extended safety.
