Working on my "smooth" trigger pull

[techmike]

I would by all means suggest installing a Wolff reduced pull weight spring kit. They are inexpensive and your firearm will still be TOTALLY 100% reliable. For less than 20$ you can instantly reduce double action trigger pull weight by at least 30% by ordering/installing the kit which offers options of how much weight by including multiple springs with different compression strengths.

I just did this with my 642. Made a nice change in the weight of the trigger pull...it was already smooth from lots of dry firing. Be warned...the rebound slide and spring can be a booger to reinstall. Brownell's has a tool for it that makes it a little easier.

I agree with stalkingbear about a lighter hammer and return spring kit for revolver shooters and I would go on to add a good set of grips. This was the ultimate saving grace for me on a S&W model 66. No 2 persons hand will fit a certain grip the same and for me a set of Safariland grips with a right handed palm swell helped reduce trigger torque immensely. As for the hammer and return spring the same applies for handguns as well as rifle shooting for accuracy. The less you have to pull on the trigger the less you will be pulling off target. My model 66 is deemed to be a combat magnum meaning the triggers are set up with a heavy trigger pull to counter act the adreneline which will arise in a combat situation and to reduce the risk of having the gun go off prematurely. Only those who have been in a gunfight or combat can relate here. In a tough situation I am betting most of us will still tend to yank rather than squeeze that trigger ,,,,

Disassemble that puppy, polish the internal parts and replace the springs with either Wolff or Wilson Combat reduced power springs. You will be pleasantly surprised.
