My question is, how big of a factor does the trigger make in a life/death defensive shooting situation? No one in a predicament where you have to fire your weapon is thinking about the wall, travel, break, reset, etc….
To each it’s own, but I buy firearms solely for self defense whether it be for the home or while out in public. Not for sport. Sure, I’ll take it to range every few months to practice with it, but If put in a SD situation where I have to fire it, do you think I care whether its a 4lb or 5lb trigger? Do you think I care about how long the travel or reset of that trigger is? No. I am going to fire it regardless until that threat is eliminated.
I never understood the fascination with a firearm’s trigger outside of competition/sport shooting. Am I missing something?
