Yet another modification!

On a boreing winter day! ::)

My GBL came with a very square very sharp trigger. Last time out at the range the corner of the trigger cut my finger right open!

I removed the trigger rounded the corners and cold blued it. Much better! SMOOOTH! Now when it bites it won't draw blood!

Of course while I was in there I lightened the trigger pull a little more. I did it before, but wanted more. It's a bit lighter than it was, but not to the point of being dangerous!

Now what am I going to do to keep from going insane? We may go above the freezing mark today. Maybe the concrete seat at the range won't be so bad! ;D

Well my accuracy which was good anyway did not get any better with this modification. What did change was my point of impact! Wow! Taking the pressure off the barrel raised the POI by about 4-6"! I thought my GBL shot awefully low for some reason! :D Much better now! ;D
Lever Addict - I'm not following you on that one ... can you explain the connection between the trigger job and taking pressure off the barrel?
