After looking at videos and photo's of triggers being filed up out of stock, I have preferences.
The trigger blades on my Akus are very flimsy. I'd liken their feeling (as compared to my other doubles) as akin to the gen 1 vs gen 2 Remington 700 trigger blades. Flimsier, or less robust.
Perhaps the triggers on their target guns are more robust.
I handled their target .410 at PSA,ltd and I couldn't do the vertical grip. I bought the straight grip model.
Flimsy, eh? The Oxford dictionary defines the word as meaning "insubstantial and easily damaged".
"Insubstantial" would infer that they were not substantial enough to do their intended job well.
"Easily damaged" would infer that there are some instances of AKUS gun triggers damaged by normal use.
Neither is the case. If you can provide evidence to the contrary I'd say you should do so. Your idea of flimsy, evidently, shows that you don't know what delicate, or elegant, is. Delicate and flimsy are not the same, nor are they interchangeable.
I dug out my Dickinson .410 awhile ago just to view it with a critical eye, after reading your evaluation of the triggers on them. I find
nothing about them that is flimsy. For heaven's sake, all they need to do is "break" the sears, requiring a very few pounds pressure. What do you want them to do, pick up an anvil? Good grief!
While viewing them with the "critical eye" I mentioned, I looked closer at the workmanship evident in them. They are designed for a right-handed shooter. The front trigger "shoe" is angled slightly to the right, to accommodate a finger that is inserted from the right. Because the rear trigger is more likely to be pulled with a more straight back motion, it is less so. They're thin, when viewed from the side. This absolutely lends an elegance to the form.
I find the actual triggers on Akus shotguns to be cheap stamped junk.
That is absolute bullshit. You show me a machine that can stamp out a trigger that is shaped as nicely as that, with multiple contours, and I'll buy you one. You evidently either have an agenda, or you don't know nice form when you see it.
You had something to say about having seen triggers filed out by some craftsmen. If you
have seen true craftsmen making triggers from stock, you didn't learn much.
"Flimsy" and "less robust" are not the same thing, at all. Any craftsman, or even someone who knows enough to understand form, would know that. Robust may be appropriate for a big waterfowl or pigeon gun, but it's not for a .410 or 28 gauge, and it's badly out of place.
