Marcus Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 The trigger on my gun is a little too light for me. On high driven birds I have had the gun disharge before I intented and would like to increase the weight of pull. There is a small allen key by the trigger for adjustment. Is this something I could do or should it go the the gunsmith? Also, if it is something I can do would anyone know which way to turn to increase the weight, and by how much should I turn it. I know its not going to be an exact science, but anyone got an idea? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HW682 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I take it you don't have a manual then? It might be a good idea to try and download one from the Browning website if possible. I know Beretta do them, so I would have thought others do. Hopefully someone will post a link for you. Otherwise google is your friend.

Adjusting trigger pulls is a job for a very competent gunsmith or someone with a good level of mechanical aptitude. The socket screw on the trigger blade is for adjusting length of pull very slightly. If you mount the gun as though you were shooting a high pheasant and the correct length of pull will be when you can just place the first pad of your forefinger onto the trigger blade. Adjusting trigger weights requires the stock off the action and judicious adjustment to the sears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I was getting as is that presumably the manual would point out whether this is an easy user adjustement to make (and how to do it) or not.

BlaserF3 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 The manual just advises you on altering the trigger longitudinally it does not tell you how to adjust the weight needed to fire the gun. It's like Salopian explained it, it's a job for a gunsmith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Posted September 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 I see, so this allan key adjusts the position of the trigger blade and not the weight of pull. That may still help me, I will see if I can find a manual first, if not will put it in for a Gunsmith to sort Thanks guys M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Here is a manual for a 325 http://stevespages.com/pdf/browning_b325.pdf It's on page 14, mechanically they are the same gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
