offset single trigger.

Has anyone ever seen a trigger that has been offset, so the blade will come up closer to the center of the tumbler? A guy I know does this to minimise the torque applied to the sear bar.

This is very common on European and English pieces.  Some are heavily offset, such that they are on the very edge of the trigger plate and barely covered by the guard.

I offset all my triggers to the lock side. I figure it helps with trigger pull

Same way I was taught.  I wonder if they will take points at Dixon's? :D J.D.K.
