I love the trigger on my 686. It's just right for me

Was your 686 made before they changed the firing pin design I:E is the firing pin still attached to the hammer itself? Does it have a dash number?

I've fired both old and new Smiths, and an old Colt Trooper and the Colt had the lowest amount of pressure needed to actually pull the trigger, but the target trigger and hammer setup on my 19 is superior im my mind because the trigger has a smoother, less stagey pull, and clean breaks, albeit with a hair more weight for pull. The 686s I've handled, pre and post firing pin change, were not as good as either the Colt or my Smith, but the pre's were still pretty good for a stock trigger setup.

Firing pin isn't attached to the hammer. Just thyinking about it, I may just be used to shooting guns with heavy triggers, so k9870 probably will need the trigger job

When do you plan on trying it out?

I want as light and smooth as possible while having 100% primer ignition. I HATE DAO autos, on a wheelgun the utility the pistol itself gives would let me get over the DA pull, i just want it as good as possible. Who knows with some practice i may worm up to double action. Right now im single action guy, i dont like striker guns due to A. Most are glocks, and dont fit my hand B. Even models I like like XD have overtravel, lots of it. Springfield does offer to bring trigger to 4.5 pounds (my favorite) and put in an overtavel reduction, seems good. Im the guy who would modify every gun i get in some way though.

Very nice!

Since we are talking about triggers and all that, does anyone know what the DA trigger pull for the 4506 is? I can't find any info anywhere about it other than people stating that it is simply "heavy"
