Why didn't he just break open and make his gun safe like he was SUPPOSED to do when someone had to go forward to fix the trap?
Sounds like he needs a time out for a while

I've spent a good deal of time at the trap and skeet range, it used to be a regular weekend thing for me for years. I've since tapered off quite a bit, but it's still something I like to do.
As for SG triggers, I really never gave it much thought, and honestly I would bet most of my SG's have 6-8 lb. triggers, maybe more, and probably lots of over travel too. But now you've got my attention, as well as my curiosity up, so tomorrow I'm going to weigh them. But like most, I think I either adapted to it, or it never crossed my mind, probably a bit of both?
Now when it comes to my rifles, and some of my wheel guns, that's another story altogether. I like my rifles very light and crisp, like glass breaking. Even though most of my rifles are every day production rigs, I always, and I mean always, take care of the triggers. I don't think I have a trigger over 2-1/2 lbs., and most are 2 lbs. and break like glass. And I'm sure you know what your talking about, but I honestly don't think I would like a a SG with a light trigger. Maybe I'll just have to lighten one up and see what it does for my shooting?
Very interesting thread here, really has me thinking.
