Full description and what we offer
Stratton Custom focuses on one thing and does it exceptionally well: trigger jobs for Thompson Center firearms. Steve has built a reputation among TC owners for transforming factory triggers into precision-tuned mechanisms.
A Stratton Custom trigger job involves: - Squaring up the sear notch on a surface grinder - Hand-honing the sear face to proper angle with smooth, even finish - Honing and smoothing all moving parts - Replacing factory spring with custom spring for your specified pull weight - Complete receiver cleaning and lubrication of internal parts - Adjustment of overtravel screw (if installed)
The result: a crisp, clean break with zero creep—a dramatic upgrade from factory specs.
A 2 lb trigger is excellent for target shooting and varmint hunting in warm weather, but poses safety risks in cold weather hunting when gloved fingers might bump the trigger unintentionally.
Steve recommends: - 2 lb minimum: Target/varmint shooting, warm weather - 3 lb minimum: Cold weather big game hunting - Ideal scenario: Multiple frames dedicated to different purposes
Once the trigger job is complete, it's not field-adjustable—pull weight changes require sear and spring replacement.
