I too have rarely resorted to getting trigger jobs for my guns. My 1911's...meant for Bullseye competition have been touched up by a pro however.
I've found that each manuf. has a different feel to their triggers, that needs to be learned before declaring oneself proficient. To whit: The Browning HP vs most any 1911, vs Sig's DA/SA mode of fire, vs. the Glock 'breaking rubber band' trigger and none remotely resemble a good DA revolver....With 50 years + of shooting them all, it's been fun learning new tricks...a delightful part of the game.
A good SA trigger (the standard in my world would be most any S&W) is a joy to work with...but I've also found that the two stage military type allows me a better feel for the gun...I just shoot better with them.
All in all, my favorite would be a 1911 with a 4.5# trigger for most any work...and about the same on my Single Action Colts and Rugers. My least favorite is the Glock's striker trigger, but I'll readily admit that I shoot the Glocks as well as any of the others at speed and only really object to their feel in deliberate, precision slow fire.
