It seems no one in the world builds gun from the factory with decent triggers... all are "lawyer triggers" since it seems they are more afraid of getting sued rather than making a good product.
Everyone I talk to about a new gun has plans to "get a trigger job" from a gunsmith. It's like taxes... it keeps the accountants in jobs. The crop of triggers coming out seem designed to keep gunsmiths in jobs.
To be fair, and since this is a Taurus forum, the 24/7 and MilPro guns have pretty decent triggers. But I wonder how the 1911 guns are. I have a Star BM (Spanish military pistol) which was produced for 19 years olds to carry (Spain has mandatory military service) and it breaks crisp at 3.5 lbs.
I bought a Springfield 1911 and it has a mushy trigger that creeped to a 7 lb. pull! I have a new FN Hi-Power that brought at about the same weight... until I worked on it... now it's a crisp 4.5 lbs and a pleasure to shoot.
Some how, I feel like gun manufacturers ought to provide a $60 voucher to the gunsmith of your choice to have the trigger adjusted to the customers satisfaction.
Oh well... got this off my chest! I should feel better. Nope! Didn't work!
