ATI Nomad 28 ga Trigger Adjustment

[bwhana]

I just bought one and the trigger pull was atrocious - at least 10 lbs. I removed the butt stock and all you have to do is loosen the screw for the trigger/hammer spring to where you like it. If you go too light, it also reduces the hammer strength and may not hit the firing pin enough to ignite the primer so test it fully! This is the same for the Midland and other similar guns. I also read where folks had issues with the break open screw contacting the spring and causing poor trigger pull, but mine was not long enough to do so. You can either loosen the screw or replace it with a shorter one if you have that issue.

The Charles Daly 101 has a different setup with an actual spring, and yes if you make adjustments to length and tension beware of light primer strikes. It took several adjustments of spring lengths to find one that reduced trigger pull and still fired. Trigger pull is still heavy but way better than what was set at the factory.

I bought one of these in 410 and as far as i'm concerned they are a cheap piece of junk.. Save your money and buy you either the Stevens or Rossi in 20 ga or 410 ... IMO

Agreed she is cheap but that is the point for me to try a 28 ga before I go into a semi or other platform. Did the same with the Midland when I tried 20 ga and it turned out to be a great gun and have used it more than my Franchi. If it won't shoot well, I'll throw it under the seat as a coon killer while checking traps. I already have a Rossi 410 ready to hunt this spring too.

Purchased one also messed with the spring a little got the trigger better, but still not where I would like but as this is not my dedicated turkey gun just trying to check 28 gauge off the list. It's definitely a good huntable pattern out to 40 with Apex 9 1/2 hopefully find out here shortly. then on to the 16 gauge, and that will be one with every gauge available
