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.

If he gets one factory new, it'd be a good idea, since the newer ones, in my experience, aren't as smooth as the old builds, but if he gets an older one, it shouldn't be necessary.

I think a 627 tuned may be sweet too, but i need to see if i like that frame size, 8 rounds is kick ass 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"

Probably varies but most da/sa guns have about 10lbs first pull, just buy a pull gauge for yours.

I have exactly $15. Seriously though, every time it is mentioned online, it is only listed as "heavy" which could mean anything from the guy just has weak hands or the trigger is close to that of a Nagant revolver. It's hard for me to guage it because I have pretty strong hands and most triggers feel light-medium to me

That is an absolutely beatiful gun though. I hope you nail a deer with it
