“Have you tried the LCR trigger?”

Only the one on the LCR 22lr version. It sucks.

I’ve never had an S&W with a bad trigger. I have a 617, a 686, a 638, a mod41 and an M&P 15 and each has a better trigger than my Ruger Security 6, .22LR LCR, p89 or MKII Government model (although that one is pretty good).

I’ll take your word for it and I’m quite surprised. Perhaps you got one with a problem. If S&W starts making lousy triggers they won’t stay in business at their price point.

The S&W trigger on my 642 is not bad for what it is. Its a heavy pull that really stacks towards the end of the stroke. The LCR trigger is a whole different feel - light and smooth all the way through.

The old Ruger triggers in the Security/Service/Speed Six weren’t nearly as good as the S&W triggers of the day. They could be tweaked by changing the springs to get a much better pull. The latest GP-100 triggers are very nice.

Of course, no trigger was as nice as the Colt Python but I couldn’t afford one then and definitely can’t now.
