    Default Does anybody actually like serrated triggers?

    Every time i use one, my trigger finger gets chewed up. I've never had any problems with smooth faced triggers. Why is this a thing?

    Glock compact models need them for import points.

    Stop wearing gloves and sand a floor, paint a fence, paint a house and wax on/off they will harden up

    Haha. I wish my hands were coddled like that. I'm an assembler in a factory. I play guitar (so i have calluses in my finger tips). Serrated triggers chomp straight through.

    Interesting that Glock needs a serrated trigger for import. That seems... Wait for it... Arbitrary. But it might explain why my cz pcr had one.

    I have had American made firearms with them too though.

    Rules are written in the stone,
    Break the rules and you get no bones,
    all you get is ridicule, laughter,
    and a trip to the house of pain.

    Came out of the "Saturday night special" era. Anti-gun government desk fliers posing as experts in firearms decreed that handguns had to be of minimum size, minimum weight, contain a percentage of steel, and have certain features known to "sporting arms" and not "war weapons". They maintained that if a handgun was a sporting gun, it should have a serrated trigger.

    Your beat-up papillary ridges are a small price to pay to protect the children. Shame on you. And, be thankful that they dropped the steel and weight part. I suspect Gaston Glock paid off somebody to accomplish that. Probably had something to do with special offers to government and LE.
    There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

    Now I have to go look at all my guns to see if any of them have a serrated trigger.
    If they do, I never noticed...
    I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

    NO!

    My favorite S&W revolvers have the .400 wide smooth 'combat' trigger. Some like my 657 Classic Hunter had them from the factory. The others , I swapped them out , or thinned and smoothed myself.
    I don't speak English , I talk American!
