X frame trigger has picked up some creep...suggestions?
« on: October 12, 2006, 04:56:21 PM »
After about 150 mild rounds a once perfect (to me) trigger has now picked up a bit of creep.  I only shoot the gun in single action and it gets cleaned after every range session.  The trigger now grinds about 1/32" then gets slightly stiffer, then bang.  I'm kinda new to revolvers so do I have to lube something besides what the manual points to?
Thanks-Ron

If your trigger has picked up some creep you need to counsel it on the proper selection of friends!!  ;D

Revolvers shooting single action have alot of trigger travel. The manual should cover all points for lubing. Any other ?s feel free to ask theres a lot of answers here.
