    I have standard Trijicon three dots on my 228. They work well enough.

    Understood.

    I may have an older set of Mepro #8/8s I'm not using. I'll have to go digging but if you could use em, I'll look around a bit and see if I can find them.

    first outing

    Today was my first trip to the range with the 228, I was pleased not much recoil, pretty accurate.I like the sights but they are dead night sights.the double action is a bit heavy, the SA was nice and light.Its a keeper, now I need a couple spare not being used 226 mags.I'm going to work on some reloads and draws ,then hopefully I'll call early enough to get a slot at the KSTG match coming up.

    As an aside, dead night sights will sell on auction sites; dudes buy 'em to put on deuce-deuce conversion slides.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    It felt like it was 16+. Can you bring it next Friday? I'll bring my trigger pull gauge.

    My 228s DA pull is seriously heavy. Nearly twice what my 226 is I'd bet.

    That would be the specs for pistols with the short hammer spring. The older ones with the longer spring were much heavier and were more likely to have a gritty DA pull. The quick fix is to install a lighter hammer spring and trigger job. OTOH, some people pay a good chunk of change for those hand grip things to strengthen hand muscles. .
