I don't like the disconnect because guns with it differ from about every gun I have ever used, and with my Browning, I can't lower the hammer unless I have a mag seated and I don't want to have to put a magazine in my gun to be able to lower the hammer or dry fire it, especially if I keep loaded mags around. I have some extra mags I keep empty, but it's annoying to have to take them out of their case and put them in when I want to dry fire or lower my hammer after clearing it, and it just gets annoying. Mostly though I'd just like the gun to operate like my 1911 or every other gun I own or is out there.
As I said before I tolerated it on my Smith cause I could decock the pistol without the mag in place thanks to the decocker, but if I wanted to dry fire I needed the mag, but as long as I could drop the hammer without putting it in I wasn't that annoyed. It is nice to dry fire without a mag though as it's one less thing you have to check and keep track of. I can see both sides of the arguments with disconnects in engagement roles where one might need to fire their sole chambered round, or if they need to disable their gun in the event it's being taken away from them though, but as a gun enthusiast, I can't really approve of them.
