Can anyone recommend an armourer in FFX to lower the trigger pull on an H&K?

Anyone who owns a gun should be able to do it themselves.
Probably can't change a flat tire either.

Blue Ridge Arsenal in Chantilly just renovated and expanded its gunsmith area and hired a new smith.

Pistol - H&K usp 357 sig. The factory trigger pull needs to be lowered. I will call Blue Ridge in the morning. Thanks.

You realize it will forever void the warranty? If you need the trigger pull worked on a SA/DA gun you bought the wrong gun.

Yes if you want to be overcharged and probably have shotty work done. That place is the worst.
Drive out to Manassas and go to Virginia Arms much better.

Might call H&K and check whether you can drop in an adjustable or if they offer a shorter pull/lighter spring set. I've not done it with my H&K USP 9 but I have with some others. The shorter pull trigger for the Sig was only ~$15 if I remember right.
I think the trigger on my 9 is great. One of the best out of the box that I've shot. Mine is older though and I guess they could have changed something across different models and/or over time.
I'm always wary of some unknown guy doing trigger work that involves changing the actual geometry. That's kind of an art and the better guys who do that kind of work all the time have jigs and profiles already set up so that they can do it consistently right. Just having some general gunsmith go at it with a file and Dremel, well... good luck with that.

Blue Ridge is overpriced and inadequate.

Northern Va Gunworks in Springfield. If you want a quality, professional job, check them out. If you want your hand held and to gab, go elsewhere. They're not much on small talk and BS. But, they're the best gunsmiths in NVA.

Leave the trigger alone and strengthen your wimpy fingers.
Or man up and do it yourself.

No shit. HKs are combat guns and have best triggers in its class. Train more.

Itd be nice if that place turned around. The vast majority of people that work there are dicks (or at least were the last time I went and had enough of that place) and their prices are crazy for most things. Theres definitely better places that guy could have went if hes that good, hopefully he wont morph into them over time.
