Would there be any gain in drilling a stock trigger in this area

and tapping it for a set screw to take up some of the engagement with the hammer
or am I off in my thinking? Just thought it would shorten the pull some.
Depending on how much a person wanted to shorten or could shorten it maybe some of the upper surface may need removed  for the saftey to work properly.
Like i said maybe i am

It's very difficult to drill through that material as well.

Easier to finish thread the PG, install an extended screw, and adjust to fit.

There is a thread in the archives about this.

EDITED TO ADD:

Found the thread in the Archives and there is a .PDF file online.

Thanks for the info, great reading
Yes the set screw would be under "covered by" the safety but I figured a short set screw not protruding above the trigger material, and far enough back in the trigger not to interfere with the disconnector

And yes you are correct can't drill it, harder than my head as the saying goes
