Same here... but 35 years ago with early 60s Mk.Is fit with Austin Behlert (RIP) prepped parts. Proper parts and fitting do make a big difference don't they.

Oh... I don't know about that. My remaining P35 has well into 35K rounds and when last checked still has Behlert's short, crisp 5 lb. pull.
I know... 5 lbs doesn't sound all that great compared to what can be done with say, a 1911 trigger, but if you knew what it took to make a reliable 5 lb trigger in a HP, you'd be impressed.

If you're a DIY kinda guy, the $120 for a C&S prepped hammer, sear and spring set is the way to go. If you're not DIY... Gene Shuey (great BHP 'smith) will tune your exisitng trigger for about the same money, or install and tune C&S parts for about twice that.
C&S themselves will also do a "5 lb" trigger... but I don't have a clue what they charge. DPris... do you know?
