Default Trigger pull

Please could someone tell me the correct pull weight of the trigers f/b on a Parker vhe. Are they the same as a English gun?

Thanks Dave

It is my understanding that the rear trigger should be 4oz heavier than the front so that it is less likely to get set off when the front trigger bbl is shot first as is usually the case. Anyone else heard that?

Ya Rich, I have always been of the opinion that rear trigger is a least a few oz. heavier.

I just checked 10 or 12 of my doubles with a digital pull gauge and the rear triggers are all heavier than the front. I'd guess this is for the exact reason stated earlier, to keep the back trigger from jumping, but theoretically it shouldn't matter. Unless the gunsmith folks are taking in to account maybe nudging it or brushing it in the exchange of grip during the transfer from front to back triggers. Jerry
