Id prefer it to be honest, no shitty long creep to find the second stage like this new lawyer trigger is

The first stage of movement isn’t creep. Its take-up, or travel, and is fundamental to the concept of a 2-stage trigger.

Creep is a completely different and definitely undesirable! Creep can affect both single-stage and two-stage triggers.

The original Howa trigger was an old single stage design that could suffer horrible creep. That was replaced years ago by the HACT. The two-stage HACT trigger has very light first stage take-up, then you hit the “wall” of the increased second stage pull, then it breaks with zero creep. The aforementioned spring upgrades achieve really good hunting triggers at minimal cost/effort, a lot of experienced hunters prefer a lighter pull, usually because our hunting ranges are often a lot further than other territories.
