my tanfoglio L model just came in , the trigger is a little hard for my taste

i have all the wolf springs for this model / hammer springs 13-14-15lbs

That should get you started.

In my experience the main issue with the trigger pull on the Tanfoglio's is the trigger bar strut and the contact area on the trigger bar. All of my guns except my Limited came with deep grinding marks where the plunger rides against the trigger bar and this area was ground crooked on 2 of my guns (making the trigger pull very gritty and hard). I had to take my Dremel and straighten those out.

Usually I'll take 1000 grit paper and take the grinding marks out of the plunger head and the trigger bar. Then I'll go to 2000 grit and get them polished up. That will take probably 2lbs off the trigger pull.

thanks for the info

that came in really handy with the mag release plunger

i got down to it and i must say i,m pretty happy with it ......

it is pretty close to my old cz shadow

i haven't touch the sear and hammer cause i'm not sure to do it right

but the rest is good

7lbs double action with no grit feeling

and 3.5 single action it's pretty long but i'll live with it

14 lbs hammer spring from wolf

i first polished the trigger bar cause it was rough

and the trigger bar plunger

and the notch in the slide that the trigger rub on

then the underside of the sear housing

it's a 3 hours job to get a trigger far from what you got from the start
