I purchased an SP-101 for my wife, but she prefers my 6" 686+ for the much superior trigger. Both the SP-101 and the 686+ have lower rated springs installed. She can't pull the factory triggers. Haven't had primer problems so far.
So, Amy much prefers the S&W trigger and shoots much better with the S&W, but it is overly heavy and front shifted balance. For those who have shot the 686 6", 4" and 21/2", how much does this weight balance issue change with shortening of the barrel? Secondly, would you suggest a Weigand multi-barrel modification, or just buying a second gun?
