So I have been getting back into springers lately. I am spoiled for choice because I have a Nitrocrusher tuned Pro-Sport and whenever Fedex get's here I will have a Nitrocrusher tuned TX200HC. OK, I know the Sig is not in the same class, but so far I am really unimpressed with how the rifle came out of the box. First off, there was a nick in the forestock that I can live with, but it is disappointing. Certainly didn't happen in shipping because the box Sig provides is the best I've seen. But the beech stock seems to show big fingerprint marks everywhere you touch it. Breaking the barrel is VERY stiff. Ok, I expect that will loosen up a bit with use and it is not a deal breaker. The trigger however is HORRIBLE!!! Heavy, draggy first stage with a very indistinct wall for the second stage which is light enough, but the distinction between the first and second stage is so vague that you really don't know when the gun is going to fire.
I haven't even mounted optics yet, but I will this weekend. I do very much like the welded on picatinny rail and I'm sure there won't be any scope mount movement. Once I get a scope on here and shoot some groups, it better be darned accurate at 40 yards for me to keep it. The trigger is going to be what holds it back and the trigger is one of the main reasons I chose this gun. Is there a way to lighten the first stage and get a well defined wall for the start of the second stage? I don't really want the second stage heavier, but that first stage really is dreadful.
