Maybe too light of a trigger?

Centerfires, rimfires, pistol cartridges and everything in between.

Maybe too light of a trigger?

Post by TheBugFather »

Working on my Winchester 1892 (Modern Japan) 32-20 trigger last night.

I might have over done it :lol:

I'm going to give it a try this weekend, seems to be safe and repeatable.

I'll let you all know if I still have all my fingers and toes.

Well, it seems to be consistent and I still have all my fingers and toes.

Yes probly good your sear wants to hang on by itself. My 92 trigger spring is about half a pound and if I remember right I lightened it to that weight by bending it. My total is a bit over 2 pounds after I also reworked the sear
