Fitted a new Wilson light trigger a while back. I heard before i bought it that a new trigger would require some fitting. It has less wobble than the one I replaced but still annoying. The trigger is a Wilson Ultralight match trigger. Anyway to fix this? Its not critiical just annoying. I was considering replacing the trigger with an EGW oversized trigger. But the Wilson trigger was over $30!

If it's fitted, it does not wobble. Adjust the bow for better contact in its track. Sometimes a nylon button in the top and bottom of the shoe will give the feel you want.

IMO you shouldn't have to do anything but fit it (i.e. no additional parts). I've gone to SVI two-piece triggers (I forget what they call them) but they come a bit oversize and you fit 'em, so if they wobble it's your fault. I really like 'em. The Kings extra long triggers that I used to use also came oversized for fitting and were great if you didn't mind a yellow/gold trigger...

Thanks, I've seen those triggers. The only thing is that the trigger i installed was supposed to NEED fitting but it dropped right in with wobble. Could be my frame is slightly off spec. Are there any good triggers that are very oversized? I'll try widening the bow slightly to see if it will sure it up but i doubt it will. The button method may work but this is a self defense gun.
