I posted this on the handguns/pistolcraft
forum, but I think it got lost in the
larger debate over liability issues
and the 1911.
My question is, assuming proper and safe
gun handling, is there a mechanical
reason that a government model would be
less safe with a light trigger of say
three pounds or slightly less?
Does such a trigger pull imply less
metal to metal contact, for example?
Would such a trigger weight cause the gun
to be more prone to discharging if
bumped, jarred, or accidently dropped?
Thanks
