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:bigbye:

Hi David - Please tell us what you mean by "f/b".

Jerry Andrews 02-24-2011 04:45 PM

I'm guessing he means front and back eh? Jerry Andrews

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.

Jerry Andrews 02-25-2011 07:16 AM

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

Its possible I have my figures backward. If its not in TPS, then Del Grego would be the person to call.
