Do Not Believe Everything You Read on these Forums
The excalibur triggers are built right in their factory by excalibur personal. I know this for a fact as I have watched then put more then one together. that incudes the machining of the parts.
Why can't the manufacturers just take the extra time and do it right to start with? Not like triggers aren't a main point of concern. They're all really less than what I would like to see and I've owned 7 different ones to date.
Come on .......... dirt in the trigger mech, can't be held against any manufacturer. That probually happened after it left the factory and out of their control. Now if it had been burrs or something like that, then yes they should be held acccountable. BTW, Excalibur will and has worked triggers that their customers found that there was a problem with.
Now a saftey concern with working on crossbow triggers. Working the triggers so you get a lighter pull with it, should be left up to the experts that know what they are doing because a crossbow is different then a gun. The trigger on a gun is not under the constant pressure that the crossbow trigger is put under. If you lighten it too much, you might just take it to the point where it could fail in holding it cocked.
Again, triggers are usually tested during the design process for their best settings and should not be adjusted by inexperianced people (cleaning can be done)
