Anyone had any luck getting a 43C trigger closer to a standard J frame trigger while maintaining reliable rimfire ignition?
My preferred .22LR is CCI Mini-Mag.

The first indication a bad guy should have that I'm dangerous is when his
disembodied soul is looking down at his own corpse wondering what happened.
I reckon it's a waste of synapse time to think too much about what any revolver is like until it's been gone through and made as good as that one can reasonably be by taking away all the suck. Not hot rodding it, just taking out the suck. Until that's done, any particular example is just a sample of n+1, rolling the 20-sided D&D dice.

Not another dime.
That's how mine is too and I can get good hits with it. Mine just has a really high POI so looking hard at the D&L j frame sight package which Dave L told me he'll zero to my preference which will be same as his, top of front post POA=POI, 25 yards. And since I've shot it on the timer for solid hits (just having to hold on the stomach to hit high chest/clavicle) I'll go with that. I love this little thing.
My son got one for his wife after she shot mine well (at probable distances, not my outlier 25 yard stuff) and it's similar. Heavy but smooth but with a good POI.
My 317's trigger is much lighter, also smooth, very comparable to my two Model 36s which are fairly old.

My 43c is heavy but smooth. Not as good as a stock 38 J-Frame but OK for it's purpose. I mostly shoot Velocitors in mine.
I have had two other 43Cs.
I like to sell them at a loss and then pay a premium for another one.
My 3rd 43C was purchased used and it has an unusually nice trigger.
I thought it was stock as I've tried over a dozen types of ammo and it fired them all.
When I swapped the grips I noticed that it doesn't have a colored spring.
I'm pretty sure the factory spring was either red or blue in my previous guns.
I think a previous owner put in a lighter spring.
Since the original rimfire spring was a 12lb. according to the Wolff website, I wonder if an extra power J frame spring at 9lb. would work?
On the tactical professor website, he says he has a 9lb. trigger in his 43C.
Anyway the spring in mine is not colored, but the trigger is so light that my 78 year old sister could easily pull it.I used Remington Golden Bullet bulk ammo in the 525 round box for the 43C. Despite it having a 9 pound mainspring, which I have been told will get me ‘kilt in da streetz,’ there were no Failures to Fire.
