In a separate thread, awhile back...

"During one episode of this ongoing conversation, ToddG mentioned a study that some of the Feds (I wanna say FBI?) had done, complete with strain gauges on triggers and shit, that did indeed conclude that length of trigger pull was a more important factor than weight if you wanted to cut down on discharges from startle responses, woobie-checking, and the like. I'll be damned if I can find a link to it now. "

"I remember well the studies mentioned by Tamara (one by an US agency, other european), I'll post them if I can find them. "
I'd REALLY like to read those studies, if anyone has any links (or even just citations) to them. I've been looking for them since the first time I saw Todd comment on them, and I haven't been able to find them.
Anyone able to help with info?
