Default Parker trigger

Hi: I have a 12 gauge Vulcan in very good shape and is fun to shoot. The first trigger is very easy at about 3lbs of pull the second trigger is probably around 6lbs which is so much harder it pulls me off the target. Has anyone found this problem on their Parker and can the second trigger be adjusted for a lighter pull?

Yes, the trigger pull weight can be adjusted by a good gunsmith well versed in these older SXS guns.

Really, your front trigger is on the light side. Likely from wear and use since that one gets more use.

But, yes, the drastic difference between the two can cause issues with shooting.
