I have read that Dan Wesson revolvers have a shorter pull / trigger reset than most other double action revolvers.
I have never handled a Dan Wesson.
I have seen Jerry Miculek say he preferred Smith and Wesson revolvers due to their speed of trigger reset but I do not know him to have ever discussed length of trigger pull or length of trigger reset or Dan Wesson revolvers.
All of the above randomness being said, how do your Dan Wesson revolvers compare to Smith and Wesson or Ruger in terms of trigger pull and trigger reset?
Thank you.

Dan Wesson revolvers have a "faster" double action trigger than my other revolvers. By "faster" I mean that the trigger has a shorter pull (and reset by default) but is a little heavier. Basically the DW's are just geared a little differently with a different mechanical advantage. The DA pull on my 744 is very smooth and I am quite fond of it compared to my other revolvers but I have quite long and strong hands so don't really notice the extra bit of trigger weight..
The SA trigger on my 744 is as good as the best S&W triggers I have ever shot which I am pretty sure worked over by a smith... and it is a LOT better than most of the S&W and Ruger SA pulls I have shot.
