Default RE: Adjusting Encore trigger pull?

I am sure Thompson Center would adjust the trigger. They will only set it to I believe it is 3-1/2 pounds at the lightest. Anything less then that is often considered a hair trigger and then we get into product liability issues. Although, 3-1/2 pounds is a nice crisp trigger to me.

There is a person that will do the trigger job on the Encore and other things as well to make the rifle as best a shooting rifle as possible. I forget his name. It is mentioned in past posts.

Here is the kicker to me, and I am not knocking Thompson Center... call me cheap or what.. If I had to pay close to $400.00 for a rifle and the trigger was not as good as I thought it should be, the company would be making the adjustments and probably getting a peice of my mind as well. I do not understand why so many Encore owners want the triggers adjusted. Are they really that bad? I don't have an Encore. I have a Black Diamond XR with a great trigger by the way. But after reading a lot of posts about Encore trigger adjustments, 25acp conversions, and in some cases the OLA being removed or the barrel re-crowned.. I would look somewhere else for a rifle. And I am a Thompson Center junkie you could say. I own over ten of their rifles (maybe more, I have not counted them in a while).
