I’ve decided to keep my Beretta Elite II as my “match gun”, mainly because I want to save the wear and tear that daily training puts on the gun. I am using my Turkish Beretta clone as my dry and live practice training gun. It has a heavier DA and SA trigger compared to my Elite II.
Turkish Clone: 9lb DA, 5.25lb SA
Elite II: 6.75lb DA, 3lb SA
I can shoot the Turkish gun reasonably well compared to my Elite II, but it occurred to me that training with a heavier trigger would probably have some benefits regarding trigger control. Is it reasonable to think that if I can shoot well with a heavier trigger it would have some benefit when I switch back to my competition gun for matches?
I am wondering if there are any downsides to this? Should I try to set up my training guns trigger as close as possible to my competition gun, or just keep it as is?
Thoughts?
