Default Hard trigger pull ???

I have something on my rifle that I use, cuts trigger pull down to about half. I don't know if it'll work on a crossbow, but I plan on finding out. Here's a pic:

It may work well on rifles, just remember if you have a good trigger setup on CB it should break cleanly. Once the trigger is pulled and the shot is on its way it can't be stopped! Push safety off to shoot !

It's called an EZPull. $40 at a lot of places. Supposed to cut pull by 50% or so. Shouldn't be any different in use than the regular trigger. Looking at one myself for the Desert Stryker. Pull is hard but little travel. This should be the ticket.

They're being sold in Gander Mountain right now, not sure of where else.

Hey guys! Can save you some time and trouble here. I did a test on these for the guy who invented them on Excaliburs and they WON"T WORK on them. Two reasons, the trigger guards are too thick and once I filed off the bottom of a trigger guard, where they did fit, the radius of his trigger won't match up w/ radius of Excal triggers. Being an old muzzle loader competition shooter [on a very small scale] I liked the double set triggers on m/l and had visions of a target set up using this little goodie even though my Excal triggers are sweet as is. They also won't work on xbows that have alot of trigger travel. They are designed to fit on thin metal trigger guards common to most rifles but not xbows. Have fun!

Thanks shucks.. I bought my EZpull from Gary, the co-inventor. He told me that they might try to work on a version for a CB. Probably be awhile tho.

They don't work on Strykers either. A guy bought one and put it on. When he put the arrow in place it fired on him. He's got a broken finger and cracked some others and lots of pain over it. Back to looking at lubes. Ouch!

Details over at the AT xbow forum.
