    S&W SW9 Trigger Problems

    My S&W SW9 seems to have a 20lb trigger pull. The factory specifications say it's only 12lbs, but the pistol is almost a pain to shoot. The excessive trigger pull pulls me off target more than the recoil, and my groupings are suffering.

    I do not know the inherent accuracy of the weapon, however it's very sloppy on target and I'm convinced it's not just my shooting (I had 3 others shoot it as well, and they couldn't even get a shot on target - and one of the shooters was a former 1911 competition shooter). Halfway through the pull it feels like it will break, but then it just takes more pull after that and breaks awkwardly. I noticed 2 of the shooters got to the mid-stage flinch anticipating recoil, so that's how defined the mid-pull is.

    Does anyone know of a simple fix for this horrible trigger? I was thinking of purchasing some Wolff reduced strength springs to try to temper the trigger, but I'm not entirely sure this is going to be enough. Please advise.

    Send it to S&W, they come with a lifetime warranty. I have one of those, all stock, and the trigger pull is not 20lbs. Not 12lbs, either, it feels to be around 5lbs.
