I suspect the trigger on your 745 was similar to the trigger on my Tanfoglio Witness .38 Super. SAO, and the advantage here is the properly located safety.

Image Info: EAA Witness Elite Match in .38 Super +P by Tanfoglio. This is a single action-only pistol and can only be carried cocked and locked. The magazine holds seventeen rounds.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
I don't remember a lot about the trigger on Harvey's and my Hi-Power, other than it wasn't quite as good as the trigger on any of my 1911s. It didn't have the magazine disconnect to hamper it and it had been massaged by a Hi-Power specialist, so it felt pretty good. I really prefer the non-hinged, virtually take-up and reset-free feel of a good 1911 trigger.

I think the best top-hinged trigger I have ever felt was the one on the S&W 745 that I had for a while...Image below from Allan Tarvid - Image Title: S&W 745
Image Info: This S&W 745 is a single action version of the 645 and is aimed at competitive action pistol shooters.

If not for the awful slide-mounted, backwards-operating safety, I would still have that gun...
