I love going to my barber shop since he always has an assorted "oldies-but goodies" gun magazines to read...Anyway, looking at an Elmer Keith article written some 40 yrs ago, he stated that while working as a final inspector at the Ogden Arsenal during WW11 him & his buddy used a quick remedy for reducing the trigger pull on some 1911's.
He altered them by taking a small center punch and throwing up a burr on the inside of the full-cock notch so the sear did not bite as deep in the notch.
Now, this really intrigues me...Has anyone ever used this method or have a pistol so notched? I sure would like to see an image/pic if available...I guess back then that was the most expedient & cost effective way to go...
John, what's your take on this method?
