The SP101 triggers seem to be pretty inconsistent ... my neighbor bought a new Wiley Clapp version snubbie and it felt like there was gravel in the action. It did smooth out, however, after a few weeks of dry firing and a couple hundred rounds. I just bought a 4" in 327 Fed Mag and I have to say the trigger is pretty good, right out of the box. The DA trigger stroke feels a little longer than a S&W trigger, but very smooth.
