Luger Target Trigger Modification

[Hugh]

John,

I can't find those pictures in my files. However, I do have the article on my computer and will be happy to email it to any one requesting it. My email is hhclark@wildblue.net

Since then, I have determined that if you don't want to drill holes in your trigger, you can make minor improvements in the length of pull and sear engagement by SLIGHTLY bending the front tang of the trigger outward and/or VERY SLIGHTLY bending the trigger lip that engages the trigger lever downward. This will shorten the "free travel". Use caution however, as too much bending will cause the sear to fail to engage the firing pin. Do not attempt to bend the trigger lever, as you will just end up with a broken one. THEY DON'T BEND!

Someone had done this to my 29/70 Mauser. I carefully straightened it out to regain the famous mile-long pull!
