It's a browning silver 12ga, set up as a slug gun with a rifled cantilever barrel. It will be used like a rifle, so I want a nice 3.5lb trigger on it. Any recommendations on who to send it to? Somebody said Bill Springfield of http://www.triggerwork.net/shotguns.html is good. Just looking for recommendations. Cany any decent gunsmith do this pretty easily? The safety also is a bit tough/loud to disengage, Bill said he might be able to help that too.

Can't help with the trigger, but my safeties, I have two Browning BPS's, work really smooth. The safety and the bottom feed/eject are two of theings I like most about my BPS's
Sorry, I misread the post. I thought your were talking about the BPS series.

These guys have a rep as one of the best for Browning - either they worked for browning, or were the service center or similar.

Thanks for the tips guys, I'll look into it. Yeah the safety is kind of annoying, especially given that this is a deer gun. I don't like how they make their deer version of the Silver, exactly the same as the other versions of the silver. No monte-carlo stock even though it has a cantilever barrel, safety has to be manipulated slowly if you don't want to spook a deer 30 yards away, trigger weighs in at over 7 pounds. Don't get me wrong it's a great gun, just glad I got a deal on it. Wouldn't pay $1000 for this configuration.

Anyway a little work by a gunsmith and she should be doing fine I'm sure.
