| I hate the heavy trigger and I am about to pull the parts out and mail them off. Should I go with the 3lb or 4lb? Speed hammer option? I will be getting a .22 conversion kit for x-mas also, so I need to insure the hammer strike is ok for a .22. This will be a nice economical fix for now. |

There was a long thread several months back about the Bill Springfield trigger jobs. Most good as usual however a few had bad or not such good luck with his service. One regular poster posted that he measured the trigger pull with a gauge and didn't end up with the pull weight he ordered. When he posted that you could tell some of the kool aid drinkers came out of the wood work to trash that poster. That poster didn't have as good of a response from Bill Springfield as would have been expected. He even posted a pic of what the device was measuring.
What that post and the following posts showed me is that many only look at the feel of the trigger pull after Bill Springfield to judge his work rather than actually measuring what trigger pull they actually had after the work. I posted and suggested how many others had actually measured using a trigger pull measuring device and no one answered that. I'm certainly hot trying to trash this guys work. He comes highly recommended and have even thought of using him myself. But that one post make me a little more wary of what one may actually be getting back in regards to trigger pull poundage. If this one posters was off as much as it was it kinda makes me wonder how many others are not what they ordered either. Here's the long thread. Look at the post by texjames on page three of the thread and the responses afterward to get an idea. Bill Springfield trigger job |

There is a member of this specific forum, who I will not name, that has a rifle with a bill springfield trigger job. The work malfunctioned while I was shooting his rifle and I had a full auto toy for a couple of seconds. Sounds fun, but the consequences aren't. |
