And how does a gunsmith lighten severely heavy pulls?
I have a nice J. Manton with massive, Birm. proofed, twist barrels in like new condition which I would like to shoot but my index finger is too weak.
The gun weighs 8 lbs 12 oz. I don't know the trigger pull since my scale only goes to 20 lbs.
Locks are bar action hammer.
I'm going to work on it myself. I believe I have the tools (spring clamps, files, stones) and similar locks from a gun with unsafe barrels to practice on, but I don't have a clear idea of the best plan of action.
