642 Performance conflicting information

[Wildman101010]

Everywhere I look under the specifications of the performance model, it shows a 10 pound trigger pull.

The regular model is a 10 pound trigger.

Everywhere I look under what the performance model offers it says lighter trigger pull.

Can somebody enlighten me please? Thanks!

And here I thought somebody was going to answer this question in two seconds and call me a dummy I guess it has stumped more people than I thought!

10 pound trigger isn't meant to be an exact figure for a specific firearm.

It's the minimum trigger weight to be compliant for sale in Massachusetts without a manual safety.

Thus, it's telling you that the trigger is at least 10 lbs. Could be 10.5, could be 12, could be 14+ in the case of rimfire revolvers.

But that would apply to the performance model as well correct? So if it says 10 then it could be 12 or 14? I guess the ultimate point is, enhanced trigger model evidently has nothing to do with what pound trigger pull it is??? So does not affect that all?

Saying that it "does not affect that at all" is an unsupported inference from it being over 10 lbs either way to meet MA requirements. That's like saying that there's no difference in weight between an NFL quarterback and an offensive tackle because they're both at least 190 lbs.

If it's like my 642UC and 442UC, it's about 10.5 lbs out of the box and 9.5-10 lbs when broken in. Basic 442/642 are generally 12-13 lbs when new.

My understanding is that the PC action jobs in revolvers are typically stoning the sear surfaces in a jig and a slightly lighter trigger rebound spring. You could achieve much of the same with a lot of dry fire pulls and a rebound spring of your choosing.

Actually, it was neither unsupported nor an inference, it was a simple deduction! And maybe I need to call your attention to that universal symbol that's generally used to represent it's in question format and not statement! So I could have done without the first part as I think that was just a statement made to impress others. See that's another deduction lol!

And you're making an incorrect assumption that I seek a lighter pull or a smoother action, when in fact I only wanted clarification.
