Texczech;
Good evening to you sir, I hope the day's been a fine one for you and this finds you well.

While I am not Larry, we are I suppose both from north of the medicine line and share the same barber from the photos I've seen.

Trigger shoes used to be a big deal and seem to have lost favor with a lot of shooters, however I'll admit to having one on about every non-lever action arm in the safe.

The reason I like them personally is that they make the trigger pull sensation different - to me lighter in feel as well as allowing the trigger finger to sense where the pull is at during the process.

On a couple of occasions in my shop I've had non-shoe users guess the trigger pull weight of a rifle with and without a shoe installed and in each and every case they guessed that I'd adjusted the trigger to a lighter weight with the shoe installed.

Anyway sir, while Larry may have different and valid reasons for using shoes, those are mine.

Hopefully that made some sense and was useful. All the best to you all.

Dwayne
