    Default What is a trigger shoe?

    While looking at a Colt Diamondback on Gunbroker, I saw what appeared to be a couple of holes on the trigger. I emailed the seller to inquire, and he said it was equiped with a "trigger shoe". I don't know what that is. Anybody?

    On certain pistols and revolvers, mainly revolvers, you will find different width triggers, the wider the trigger, the essayer it seems to pull. People who have a sensitive trigger, usually have a thin trigger, while a hard to pull trigger seems lighter with a larger trigger.

    This evolved into rifles and shotguns, by adding width to the trigger, you can make th trigger seem lighter to pull..

    correct , most all of us used them back in the 70's . haven't seen one in 15 years or so , kind of like the old Tyler T grip adapter . we used both on most of our old S&W revolvers
