Kimber trigger Pull

[smokemjoe]

2 months ago I got a new SS 9MM in aTarget Model, Shoots so well That lastweek I got a  a  Elcipes in 45 , But the trigger pulls are 7 lbs. What would you do get them down to about 4 lbs. Thanks- Joe

 Dry firing will improve the trigger a lot. Probably get it down to the 5# range.  If that's not satisfactory to you,  best bet is to have a good 1911 smith slick the triggers up on your Kimbers,  or replace the trigger group with aftermarket parts. Personally, I'd shoot the crap out of them. I can live with a short clean breaking 5-6# trigger on a 1911.

when I stated shooting a 1911 .45acp I heard someone ask about getting his new series 70 colt accurized. He was told to buy 1000rds of 230gr ball ammo and shoot it. He would be surprised how much accuracy his pistol gained after that 1000 rd 'break in'.  It is most often the shooter, not the pistol that needs accurizing.  Remember, Bullseye Grand Master shooters put 10 rounds on a quarter dollar size target at 25 yds with a 4.5# trigger pull. It is ALWAYS the trigger activating mechanism that has the greatest effect on accuracy.

SharonAnne:  So nice to 'see' you again.  Thank you for your post - and that's the truth on both ends.  Hope all is well.  How is your writing coming along??
