McGivern really had no choice but to stick with stock guns. The aftermarket parts weren't available as they are today.

Replacing the springs will lighten the trigger pull by actually reducing the power of the springs. That's somehthing that can't be done by shooting it, at least not to the same degree.

I'll stick with working my guns over. I don't want to shoot 10 or 20,000 rounds through my gun before it really smooths up when I can spend 8 hours and really do it right.
