While at the range last weekend, a guy shooting next to me had an early release S&W Sigma 9mm. I have seen the Sigmas in shops before, and they have always been a gun that I was curious about but never handled. The guy and I got to talking and he let me put a few rounds down range with it. The guy told me that he had a trigger job done to it to lighten the pull, but the breaking point was unchanged.
The gun had absolutely no stacking and gave absolutely no indication when the sear would trip the striker. The gun fired after pulling the trigger approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of the way from the set position. This meant that the gun fired LONG before the trigger was anywhere near the rear of the trigger well. I couldn't believe that the gun wouldn't give any indication of when it would trip the striker. He said that the gun had always been that way, and that was why he liked it so much. I guess to each their own, but I was completely put off by the inability to know when the gun would fire during the trigger pull. Is this normal for these guns??
