T/C trigger work?

[VTbowman]

Just me being a pest again. LOL

I have a habit of having all the triggers in all my guns (rifles anyways) lowered to about 2 to 3 pound pull.

I would think this would benifit and hand gun shooter even more.

Whats the trigger weight of a factory framed T/C handgun?

Is it readaly adjustable by the buyer or does it need to be sent off to be adjusted by a gun smith?

Thanks.

Unless you're intimately familiar with the way a trigger works it's best to leave adjustments to a pro.

Mike Bellm has some instructions available on his site.

I'm finding that the older I get the more I like a heavier trigger pull. I still want the trigger to break very clean but do like to be able to be more agressive without fear of accidently sending a round down range. If you are intending to use your T/C for hunting I wouldn't think you'd want much less than 3lbs.

Ok so what is the factory setting?

2# would be a bit low. LOL

I believe mine are set between 3 and 4 pounds now.

I've seen guns come from the factory with nice clean 3-4lb triggers and some with horrible 5-6lb'ers

I don't believe they strive for any particular setting.

I pulled mine apart and did nothing more than clean up any rough machined surfaces. I didn't adjust the pull weight at all.

If I were you and not inclined to want to do my own work I'd send it off to Mike and let him do his thing. Give him a call or send him an email, I'm sure he'd be more than happy to help you.

I guess I will see what I have 1st and go from there. Id like it set to what I am use to.

I once had a .22 rifle at 14# once.

Man that took 2 men and a boy to pull that trigger.

Thats when I started getting all my stuff done.

Thanks.
