Trigger tension

[the1kidd03]

Ok guys, I work in an engineering field and so I'm always looking for more effective/better ways of doing things (designs.) I'm in contact with an organization for new products and I just want to get a feel for the local "market".

I want to know if any of you have any firearms (primarily pistols, but not restricted to) which you would like to alter (lighten, or stiffen) any spring tensions on, but is not commercially available to do so? (i.e. the FNP-45 has a "heavy" trigger pull I'd like to lighten, but nobody currently offers and aftermarket springs for their pistols) something similar to this situation................any of you have "custom" alterations such as this to make to a weapon, but no available "gunsmith" can/will do it and no available aftermarket replacements??? Tell me what it is/your situation in this thread....

Sig522 is heavy. There are mods out there but a drop-in would be nice.

Not so much spring tension, but there are SEVERAL makes and models out there that could use a new transfer bar system to decrease the pretravel.

berretta 92 and ALL of the taurus semi autos.

and if you could engineer a more tactile reset for MandPs after the apex sear install that would be great also.

If you could engineer a way to make S&W Sigma's trigger smooth and light, you'll have a lot of business.

I've completed a pre-engagement slack elimination on an FNP-45 (as much as can be allowed with the existing design of that weapon) and am getting some replacement springs finished to reduce the amount of pressure on the trigger without effecting it's operation....not my weapon btw, per "customer" request.....but anyhow I'll take all comments into consideration on this post and if anyone wishes for me to take a look at their gun specifically...let me know as well...

lol....not a taurus fan?...jk......the problem with such weapons is the whole single/double action double team design...some are hard to keep both capabilities while eliminating the pretravel.....I personally would like the 1911 trigger type on ALL of my guns....no pretravel, short, and crisp...but back to lala land

Agreed! The SW40VE I have has quite the trigger pull.....

Out of the box the trigger is pretty ridiculous!
