I have a Sauer sidelock from the 1890's that bites me the first shot, then I remember to adjust my grip. Most of my guns have about 7/8" distance from the front to rear trigger. This Sauer has a gapping 1 1/8" and the trigger guard is commensurately longer, enough that the middle finger takes the hit. Feller must have had awfully big fingers or they planned to use heavy winter gloves. smile


John McCain is my war hero.
