After market trigger springs for Ruger revolvers?

[His lordship.]

I have 3 Ruger revolvers, and the triggers are on the heavy side when shooting single action.  I have a new Super Redhawk, a 10 year old GP-100 and a single six Bisley.  I have lived with the heavier triggers, but after watching You Tube films on replacing the springs, I am tempted to go that route.  I have also shot a fellow gun club member's Ruger single action revolver and it was noticeably nicer, he had the gun worked on.

If I get the complete kit for each gun, would there be a risk of problems concerning the hammer spring being too weak and causing striker hit issues on the primer?  As I rarely use the double action feature, should I just order the small trigger spring to lighten down from the average of 4-4.5 lbs that I have now?

Thanks.

If you go with Wolff spring kits you get 3 springs of different tension. A light, medium, and heavy. The heaviest being lighter than the factory spring. Start with the light one. If you have problems with misfires, put in the medium and so on.
Be sure to test fire in double action mode since that is the most likely mode in which you will get a misfire.  In single action mode, the spring is compressed more than using double action. So double action doesn't hit as hard.That has been my experience.
If you have any revolvers with trigger return springs, the lightest spring will do the most good in reducing trigger pull. Without affecting ignition.

The Wolff spring kits help big-time to lighten trigger pulls, but if You REALLY want the Ruger actions to perform, they need TLC by a competent gunsmith.
Changing the angles on a couple critical parts is usually what it takes to get rid of the lag and creep which is so predominant with Ruger revolvers.

Please don't modify any parts yourself, unless You have gunsmithing skills, plus the jigs to determine the amount of metal removal required.

  If all you're going for is a lighter feel of the trigger, why replace the hammer springs too?  Just curious.  I'm running springs from a couple pounds below stock to a couple above and haven't had any issues with any thus far.

If you just want to reduce trigger pull weight it can be done without even disassembling the gun, which is great because reassembly is a PITA.  Just remove one grip panel and unhook the leg of the trigger return spring, the leg on the other side gives enough return pressure and you'll have a very noticeably lighter pull.

As mentioned above, replacing the trigger spring only can be done. It helps and in time with lots of dry firing or range time will become smoother. Or you can order the spring, drop it at a trusted smiths shop and start using a revolver that will put a smile on your face. The downside is you will have to buy more targets as the black portion of them keeps disapearing.

I had a smith do an action job on a Redhawk and I replaced the springs in one myself. The difference is very noticable. For hunting in cold weather the action job may be to lite. The spring replacement is just right for me. At the range or in warmer weather the action job is better than any factory trigger I've pulled and the equal of any S&W I have had.

I have used the Wolff springs for years and recomend them!
