Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns What is a good trigger pull weight for a 1911 .45?

For bullseye match competition, "hardball" 1911 category, 45 acp,. The 1911 trigger has to support 4 lbs.

Non-hardball bullseye 1911 pistols can have lower trigger pulls. 2.5# is nice.

You can get a trigger jig for the 1911 from Brownells. Use a 0.018" shim, and get a nice 4# trigger pull. Pretty easy to do.
