A trigger in this range gives users peace of mind while knowing that the handgun is more than capable of very good accuracy  \u2014  even compared to a lighter trigger handgun. If you ask anyone who carries a pistol everyday, they will explain the value of peace of mind. <\/p>\n<p>By contrast, a full-size pistol like the <a class=\"ajax-article\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/ayoob-springfield-echelon-review\/\">Springfield Armory Echelon<\/a> generally has a lighter trigger with a short trigger reset.

But, what does that really mean in use?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the <a class=\"ajax-article\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/springfield-prodigy-torture-test-review\/\">Springfield Prodigy 1911<\/a>. With the electronic trigger scale, the 1911 DS Prodigy measures the trigger at 2 lbs., 8 oz. Frankly, I did not think the trigger weight was that light. When I did the exact same measurement with the spring-loaded trigger scale, the 1911 DS Prodigy\u2019s trigger came in at 5.5 lbs.<\/p>\n<p>Frankly, I believe that measurement is too heavy. In cases like this, I have found it best to average two measurements for the most accurate estimate trigger poundage. This practice has served me well throughout the years. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Perfect Balance for Carry<\/h2>\n<p>I truly love the <a class=\"ajax-article\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/what-is-the-best-hellcat-for-you\/\">Springfield Armory Hellcat line of pistols<\/a>. They are excellent pistols to carry. The trigger weight hits the \u201csweet spot\u201d between what is considered too light and what is considered too heavy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><picture loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-53030\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols.jpg.webp 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-800x601.jpg.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-400x300.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-768x577.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-600x450.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1051\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols.jpg\" alt=\"trigger pull on Hellcat pistols\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-800x601.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-768x577.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thearmorylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/trigger-pull-on-Hellcat-pistols-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\"\/>\n<\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The trigger pull on similar guns should be similar. For example, the Hellcat and Hellcat Pro triggers will seem very alike. However, a Hellcat and a 1911 will feel significantly different.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Hellcat trigger pull weighs approximately 4.5 lbs. with a fairly short trigger reset. I think the Hellcat trigger measurement is the perfect balance for safe and effective pistol carry. Whether the carrier decides to pocket carry or ride the Hellcat holstered on the hip, they will have \u201cpeace of mind\u201d while knowing their handgun is safe and yet ready for use.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, trigger pull matters. The proper function of a pistol\u2019s trigger is the difference of an impact on target or a missed shot. It doesn\u2019t matter if the pistol is used for competitive shooting or self-defense, shooters prefer the best performance possible.<\/p>\n<p>In my opinion, Springfield Armory has all of the trigger bases covered for any and all handgun applications. One should feel confident with a Springfield Armory handgun that the trigger control and accuracy will perform precisely so long as the shooter does their part.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: Be sure to check out The Armory Life Forum, where you can comment about our daily articles, as well as just talk guns and gear.
