Trigger Mike Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I’ve had an Sig M18 with a normal trigger a while. My son fell for one with a flat trigger so I shot one with a red dot which is also new for me. After comparing them both I can’t tell the difference in how they shoot so not sure why they switched to a flat trigger. My accuracy was about the same. p.s. the red dot is easier with old eyes as many front sights are blurred.

Pat Riot Posted March 12 Posted March 12 I have one gun with a flat trigger. A Ruger RXM. I also have 3 Glocks left. I am selling them. I am keeping the Ruger. Not because of the trigger but due to the overall ergonomics of that pistol versus my Glocks, but I do like the feel of the flat trigger. I doubt I would have ever have bought a flat trigger to install in a gun had I not bought the RXM.

Dantankerous Posted March 12 Posted March 12 Flat triggers on competition leverguns I have seen and handled and they can make a difference. So far I have not seen enough difference on handguns. Well, except for one finely tuned 1911 that is.
Pat Riot Posted March 12 Posted March 12 It’s my opinion that a curved trigger steers or captures your finger during the pull. The flat trigger allows your finger to track naturally on the trigger face as one pulls the trigger, especially when the trigger pull is not straight back, like with Glocks and their clones.
July Smith Posted March 12 Posted March 12 Flat triggers are the current thing that is in style. Specifically when it comes to Sig striker fired handguns and striker fired handguns in general, I do prefer the feel of a flat faced trigger and do seem to shoot them better too. When I first started shooting, a mentor loved those "trigger shoes" and had them installed on almost everything he owned. I suppose the trigger shoe had been popular at one point in time, but I always found them awkward.
Trigger Mike Posted March 13 Author Posted March 13 Both are accurate so I’ll compare again and see if one does better as I adjust to the flat trigger.
