Ronin EMP 3: Does the trigger get better?

Right, in that video he disassembles it and does some honing. In the video I posted, he claims to have lowered it by putting pressure on the hammer while dry firing it (a couple of times) which is maybe accelerating the "break-in" between internal trigger parts. Not sure.

I got a Lyman analog trigger gauge and it says my trigger is 3.1 so that's in good shape. Other than the cheap Blazer aluminum ammo I used, the issue must be me. Go figure. :ROFLMAO:

i have the Lyman digital gauge, the Lyman analog, and the Wheeler analog......not one of them are perfect, each one is a tiny bit "off" what the other shows. ( i think the best trigger gauge would be the "weights gauge" for lack of the real name of it)

and it was the same gun, to get what he wanted, he had done a little work on it.

and of the one of the things he does, dry firing, i NEVER dry fire any gun...i use snap caps..

he was taught in the military to dry fire them, as he was doing MP duty, and he went on to say that he HAD to show his C/O him doing it.

i just will not dry fire with out snap caps, whether it be my $1,500 Dan Wessons, or my $400 Glock
 
Got it. I remember that video. I thought it was about the dropping the slide debate not dry fire.

I tested my gauge against a kitchen scale and they match.

HOWEVER, the 3.1 lb trigger I reported was a MISTAKE. I was reading the wrong side of the scale (the color scheme and shiny coating makes the Lyman hard to read). That was 3.1 on the kg scale. My Trigger reads 6.25 lbs on the pounds scale. [face palm]. 6.25 is much harder than my S&W Equalizer.
 
I know nobody has been on this thread for quite some time… I want to say my Ronin EMP 3” has a trigger pull weight of 2 lbs 13 oz… I love it! Yeah I also have a Wilson Combat that is also 2 lbs 7 oz! It is very crisp and predictable! The Springfield really surprises me! I have around 1000 rounds through it.
 
I have no idea! I did not have the Lyman when I first got the gun. But I’ve had it for about a year and a half now and it consistently measures in that range.
I really don’t think it ever started out at 4 to 5 pounds

I don't want a match grade trigger on a carry gun. Smooth and crisp, yes. But real light, no.
When the adrenaline starts pumping, you don't want any mistakes. Too light of a trigger can lead to NDs. I like about a 5lb trigger on my carry 1911s. Under stress, you won't even notice. ;)
