The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Girlfriend can't pull the trigger on my SP101 more than once

I found with my wife that she can barely pull the trigger when dry firing. Yet, when firing real ammunition, she can do it without a problem. I think for her there is a psychological component -- the extra rush when she knows it will go bang. She said that she's confident she could do it in an emergency situation.

I am replacing the home defense gun, though, with something that has a lighter pull. I'm sure that she could use the current one, but I also have other reasons for switching, so it works out very well that way.
