Another trick which works wonders, and in my opinion makes a WORLD of difference over much anything else, is when fine tuning a stock trigger to bend the hammer spring so much as not get light primer strikes, but enough to take weight off the sear engagement to reduce weight of pull somewhat and get rid of that gritty feel. It definitely smoothens things out as well. Do not clip it as per the 15 minute tirgger job, as I see no reason for this, I haven't tried it and probably would only cause problems. I do not modify the trigger spring.
