That may generally be the case when having a gun custom fitted --if-- the location of the front trigger of a DT gun and the trigger of a ST gun are in the same position. Then consider what was reported in The Parker Story . . .
"The stock dimensions and weights of the Reproductions were selected to have the most appeal to a hunter. Incidently, Skeuse specified the pull length of the Reproductions to be 14 3/8". Well, the Japanese made the guns exactly to that specification, but measured the pull from either the front trigger of two trigger guns or the single trigger of a gun so equipped. The single trigger on the Reproduction was located in the same position as the rear trigger on a two trigger gun. Thus, the single trigger Reproductions may have a pull length that is a little too long for some shooters."
