I'm fairly tolerant of less than ideal trigger actions on CC guns such as the S&W Bodyguard...but I'm here to tell you, that trigger pull is absolutely the most horrible one I've ever seen on ANY gun I've handled or owned.

It is, hands down, the worst...period.

I traded mine in on a Kimber and then gave the Kimber to my daughter.

Night and day.

One does not need a laser if one has a decent trigger, a trigger that does not pull the gun off target by 10 feet.

I got the Kimber down to about 3.5 pull.

The best I ever had out of the Bodyguard was 12.5...and I felt that was dangerous enough to the point that when I traded it in, it was with the caveat that the trigger was potentially dangerous.

I probably would have given the damn thing away.

As it was, I felt lucky to get a $300.00 trade-in on it.

I learned shooting on a 22 LR J-frame. Smooth, but VERY heavy. The S&W Bodyguard is easy in comparison. N-frame revolvers are also good for teaching one to handle significant trigger pulls. Normal is around 12 lbs DA.
