I know there could be a huge number of differences between triggers...BUT...I'm still surprised by just how different they can be.
I have a S&W model 586 whose double action trigger is light and smooth and consistent from start to finish...there is no change in feel from the time you start to the time the hammer falls...it is a delight to pull the trigger.
I also have a S&W Model 29 with a fairly heavy double action that seems to hit a brick wall right before the hammer falls. The trigger gets noticably harder to pull when you get to the back of the stroke...enough that it throws the sights off a bit when you have to put more muscle into it to get it to fall.
Am I a simple trigger job away from greatness on my Model 29? Have you ever tried to get one guns trigger to act like another that you own? Was it successful? Did you do the trigger job yourself or take it to a smith?
I'm new to revolvers so I'll listen to everything y'all have to say...I'll learn something no matter where this goes.
