I posted this once before on another thread and never got a response to the issue of excessive trigger slack (free play or the very low resistance region before the main trigger spring "kicks in"). I tried the trigger pull on another PT140 Pro in a gun shop and it also seemed to have a lot of slack. The trigger is very close to the rear of the trigger guard when the striker releases. Anyway, here's the post from the other thread. I hope that someone answers it.
I have a 3rd generation PT140 Pro. It is , for sure, SA/DA. It also says "Millennium" on the left side of the slide and
"PT140 PRO" on the right side. It does not have a rail. I believe that only the PT145s have a rail. The 3rd generation MIL PROs have a "Z" as the first or second character of the serial number. My only complaint with it is the HUGE amount of trigger travel before it fires. The actual pull after taking up the "slack" is even and light both SA and DA. It shoots well from a rest but I'm pulling low and left free handed. I shoot well with both my 1911 45 and my Taurus 605SH2 357 (titanium - 16 ounces) so I guess that I'll just have to adjust to the PT140s excessive free travel. Are the rest of you experiencing this travel (over 1/2 inch) with the MIL PROs?
