Oh well, I guess I'm not going to hear from someone that actually can give me some hands on feedback about their own personal experience with lighter springs in their own Redhawks.
No harm done, as it only costs me a few dollars to experiment with the springs.
These responses, however appreciated by me as they are, were not what I was looking for.
I own slick S&W handguns, some with excellent action jobs, and a pile of old model Ruger single action revolvers in which none of mine break higher than 3 lbs so I have decades of trigger break and double action trigger pulls to relate to. I asked a specific question about Redhawks with Wolff reduced power springs and if anyone had any feedback.
Thanks for trying.
Myself and 45man directly answered your Q with hands on experience and others with more known than anecdotal comments did.
As far as BRAND springs for the RH go, Wolff is the best known and AFAIK most used (which is what I and most others likely used) AND most widely available just about anywhere. That said Wolff specifically were useless in my Redhawk. I guess you wanted to read of first hand experiences with Wolff in particular? There you have it I used Wolff springs, mea culpa for not specifying your brand of choice. :-)
Anyway, experiment yourself and in the long run I think you'll find out you're wasting time and money trying to get a RH to perform like a 629 S&W.
No, not really. And who said I was looking for a trigger pull like a 629 or anything else. Me thinks you assume too much. But as I did say, "thanks for trying".
