I always "Tune" my own revolvers. You know the polishing of the moving parts and all. Although I can't say I like the reduced springs, so I don't use them.
On my last S&W K-frame after the trigger work I "rounded" the trigger where my finger rests inside the guard. The bottom and the sides.
The trigger is normally squared off.
What a difference in feel it made was enourmous to me. It felt much nicer to shoot.
If you have an old beatter gun to try it out, I'd give the trigger a rounding off on the sides and at the bottom and see what you think.
Just FYI among friends.
 
Yeah,I have a gunsmith who does this on all my revolvers..I tried it myself and royally screwd it up......but my guy does great work...I have arthritis and therefore a little trigger finger "shape issues" and the sharp triggers make me bleed.I does make a HUGE difference.:cool:
 
For my SP-101, I took the sharp edges off the trigger with a bit of emory paper. It made a huge difference shooting double action.
 
I took a Dremel to the grooved triggers on my 4" Model 15 and 4" Model 28. Shooting 100 rounds DA before I did that would chew up my finger pretty badly.
 
With all the negative talk about MIM parts, I figure I better ask first... Would this be a recommended procedure for new/MIM triggers? What type of metal is actually used for the new trigger? Is it solid all the way through or hollow? Thanks in advance!
