flounder Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Yeah you can get lighter trigger springs. And just as an FYI, the trigger pull will not lighten the more you shoot it. You would have to put 100,000 rounds down the barrel before the spring started to show signs of lightening up on its own. If it gets to that point, the damn thing will break first.

kawi kid Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Then keep your finger off the trigger. Your finger should be no where near the trigger until you are ready to fire. A lighter spring has nothing to do with negligent discharges. (in my arrogant opinion)of course... i didnt word it right. i have been reading if you lighten sometimes the gun wont fire. supposedly weakens the firing pin? i dunno im just going off some other forums i found with google. i know alot of people on here are way more knowledgable than me on this subject. and was just looking for a bit of help.
