I have a new Charles Daly 101 , 12 gauge single shot. Looks like it will be a nice Turkey gun , but trigger pull is really, really heavy. Wondering if that is a fixable problem. I don't know much about gunsmithing, but from what I gather , Single Shot triggers may be more complicated to work on?
Is it possible for a gunsmith to work on this trigger? If so, any recommendations on how to get this done or who to use? I don't mind shipping the gun if I have to.
Thanks

I've asked years ago about adjusting the trigger on my Remington SP-10. Never heard a response. It would be nice if there was a way to improve the pull on these, or other, shotgun triggers.
Do you have a schematic of the gun? Is it similar to the NEF/HR?

M.CARBO they offer a lot of trigger springs for different models of shotguns/rifles look them up on line ... they have one for the SP10 .... I just installed one of their trigger springs in the new Mossberg SA 28 ga tactical ... Now it has a 2.5 pound trigger ... I hope this helps ... If you order a spring be sure and get you one of the little packages of the special grease, you will need this to help with the installation ....
I have worked on my trigger pull weight by adjusting the length and coil thickness of the hammer spring. I bought an assortment of Wolff hammer springs and was able to reduce the trigger pull, but not greatly. At 6.5-7 pounds I experienced light primer strikes and FTF's randomly. A bit heavier spring has it around 8-8.5 pounds and no FTF's.
It's one of those guns you pull the trigger with your middle finger or both middle and index.
Makes it much easier .

That makes too much sense and I have never seen it mentioned before. Good suggestion !

Gotta try that.
