[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1865268, member: 68875"] Let me clarify. All my triggers are high end aftermarket triggers that are designed and spec'd out to safely be tuned down to the weights I run. Timney Calvin Elite TriggerTech Diamond Bix N Andy Tac Sport Pro My methods of testing are as follows: Take trigger weight down with very small adjustments, while I run the bolt hard to check seer (slam fire) and add pull weight/seer adjustment accordingly. Put on safety, pull the trigger firmly and then take off safety (had a few different older triggers fire when taking back off safety) I bump on the but pad and bump the side some as well, but not like dropping it. Food for thought: A safety is a mechanical device that can and will fail. The shooter is the end-all safety mechanism. Do not chamber a round until you are ready to fire, finger off the trigger outside of the trigger guard, muzzle control ALWAYS. [/QUOTE]
