Full Metal, It took me awhile to get use to the Lem trigger. Once you do, you will settle in. After the first shot you should only be going back to reset not all the way back. First shot take up some of the slack if slow firing. I found when I shot fast I wouldn't notice the long trigger, it's only when I shot slowly that I noticed the long trigger. It took me a good 1000 rounds to start adjusting to get this system down. First shot, slow fire take up some of the slack, second shot only go back to reset. Try shooting double and triple taps fast, and see what you feel. These H&K's are very good pistols, don't give up and work with it, it does come to you. I am guessing that you do have the LEM trigger? If this is an LE gun it probably does, at about 7 to 8 lbs, which is ok. Go shoot an old revolver for a while at 12 lbs, then come back to the HK and you will think the trigger is nice and light and sweet shooting.
