A Good Question

A firend of mine just asked me a good question. This is a quote from another forum.


"I love the size and weight of the USP, but in terms of trigger pulls I really like the 1911's action - I'm not too keen on the 2 step trigger pull of the USP.

This is probably a really stupid question, but is it possible to change a trigger pull from a 2 step pull like the USP to a continuous pull like the 1911? (or, at least, like the 1911's I've shot just in case it's already been done to them ) "
Any takers. Is it a simple trick that any gunsmith can do or would it take some really serious work and money? I had no idea but I did know where to come for the answer:D. Thanks in advance for any input.

Please reread my post.

I was reasking a question that a friend of mine posed to me.

Where did you get "fix" in my post?

Where did I mention CCW?

He was basically asking if trigger work could be done on a USP to get the feel of a 1911? I dont see where that is out of line. Good gunsmiths do some amazing things,especially with "trigger feel". I simply didnt know if it could be done and came here for some help! I was always taught that the only dumb questions are the ones you dont ask.



Maybe this should be moved to the gunsmithing section. I didnt want to step on anyones toes.

I thought it was a good question. I didn't know the answer and I'm a very mechanically oriented person in addition to being a fairly serious firearms shooter & collector.

Thank you ScotZ for stepping up to the plate and asking one of those questions that should have been asked long ago.

sometimes you get people who answer questions you didn't ask or flame you with the prefix of "not a flame mind you". unfortunatley, I don't have an answer for you. 3 will be watching this thread though. +ood question.

If you could get it like a 1911, then everyone would. Pretty much impossible to do in a DA/SA gun (get the SA trigger to feel like a 1911 SAO gun).

Maybe I'm missing something but the .40 USP I have has a safety that allows for cocked and locked carry if one prefers that.
