| A gunsmith or specialist in trigger tuning can use the Trigger Scan System in several ways. | |
|
The different traces display three different stepps on a trigger job. | First of all one develops a deeper understanding for the mechanical and physical side of trigger systems. Of course the feeling in the trigger finger of a trained gunsmith is a proven way to judge a trigger. But after working a long day on triggers the finger gets tired and loses some of its sensitivity. The Trigger Scan System enables one to measure the trigger pull accurate instead of only trusting a feeling. Obviously the consistency of the trigger pull can be checked by repeated tests. This is especially interesting on a revolver because differences in the ratchet for each chamber will have an influence on the corresponding trigger pull. | |
| The adjustment of a trigger system is faster and more accurate and difficult triggers are easier to adjust. Very fine trigger systems like set triggers or very light triggers on match air rifles or pistols can be tested. Examples can be seen in the demo software. While checking a trigger during the tuning process one develops a knowledge how the work process will have an influence on the trigger characteristic. Senseless work habits can be eliminated and the necessary time reduced.

That is how an aweful trigger looks like! | The firearm of a customer who complains about the accuracy of his firearm can be checked for trigger problems and in case of a faulty trigger an order for a trigger job could be the result. The test of a firearm with the Trigger Scan system can be charged if the gun was bought somewhere else or offered as a bonus if a new firearm is bought. Here also an additional trigger job could be the result. The documentation of the trigger characteristic on a sold firearm can act as evidence of the "as sold status". Experiance shows that customer`s complains about trigger jobs drop down to almost zero. Liability claims from customers who did some homework and ruined the trigger on their gun can easily be dealt with. The repair of the firearm can be charged to the customer. | |
| The advantage of aftermarket parts for the trigger system (springs, hammer, sear, ....) can be proved (before - after) with a diagram. This is an advertising that your company sells parts which are proven to work. The possibility to measure the lock time gives the advantage to test and recommend aftermarket parts that reduce the lock time. For example speed locks for rifles (K98, Swedish Mauser) or handguns (Colt, Beretta, Glock ...). The print out is an advertisement for your shop because every print out bears the name of your company. Those print outs will be circulated on the shooting ranges by the proud owners and makes your shop more known. | ||
| The Trigger Scan system will make your shop known as a modern equipped company. Customers will be attracted by the instrument. The word (and the print out) will go around that your company can scientifically test triggers. People you have not seen for ages stop by to see it and get their triggers tested. This can be done for a certain fee and as a possible follow up a tune up of the trigger could be sold. The Trigger Scan system is used with success by well known custom gunsmiths, who shared their experience with us. | ||
