Default ADJUST TRIGGER- MODEL 41???

Hi all model 41 owners,

I was at the gun club yesterday, someone noticed I was shooting a model 41 pistol. They told me that there was a way of adjusting the trigger pull but couldn't tell me how.

Does anyone have any information/photos on how to do this?

Many thanks in advance. Jerry

Where are we going? Why are we in this handbasket??

Mr. civil1977,

Thank you for your response to my post.

I viewed the the web site you suggested, unfortunately the photos on my computer screen are unclear, I cannot see what they are showing me. Are there other sites ?

Again, thank you..... Jerry

If you shoot NRA Bullseye with it, there is a weight limit, I believe it is 2.5 lbs. Every 41 I have ever shot was pretty close to this one, but a friend has one that was heavy and did need adjusting. Just don't drift he pin too far over, you will have a devil of a time getting it all back. (And be sure to use the correct size punch).
