Wheeler Manual Trigger Pull Scale with 8oz to 8lb Value Range for Gunsmithing, Shooting Competitions, and Trigger Adjustments

This is a quality trigger pull scale that does the same job as units 2-3 times the cost. This Wheeler trigger pull scale got good reviews online so I decided to give it a try, and i'm glad that I did.I like how consistent/repeatable it is. I can do 10 pulls in a row and have 8/10 be the EXACT same measurement. The other 2/10 will be within 2 ounces which is pretty darn good. It is easy to use, and you don't have to put the gun in a vise to obtain consistent results. I have no standard for comparison, but it seems accurate within reason. It's definitely not way off. My trigger jobbed 1911 came in at 2.5 lbs, trigger jobbed Beretta Elite II was 2.8 lbs SA, close to stock Beretta 92FS 4 lbs SA, stock Glock 22 6 lbs. Works for both single and double action trigger pulls provided they are below 8 lbs (DA on my worked Beretta Elite II is 5.5 lbs). The printed scale and indicator is easy to read in 2 ounce increments. Very simple to make out 1/2 and 1/4 pound increments unlike other scales.Solid construction, doesn't feel cheap. Has a nice thick rubber coated end so it won't scratch your gun. I slipped one time and it didn't leave a mark. Some other scales have rubber pads, but exposed metal ends that can scratch, so +1 to the Wheeler for that. Operation is very smooth while using it. The internal spring appears robust and makes for reliable and consistent operation (it's just a calibrated spring so it's dummy proof).Amazon shipped the unit very quickly. If you are looking for a quality non-electronic scale at an awesome price point, look no further than this Wheeler trigger pull scale. A very nice tool to have if you work on your guns, or are just curious about your pull weights.

Excellent product. Easy to use and doesn't need batteries

Have no previous experience with Wheeler products, but due to the low price point I decided to give them a chance to show their stuff. The company shipped promptly and the description of the product was accurate. Looking it over after receiving it in the mail, I noticed right off the casing was plastic and very light weight. The only metal appears to be the spring, a couple of screws internally, and the rod that hooks over the trigger. After trying it on a couple of firearms I have concluded that it is easy to use, the instructions (and warnings) are clear, yet it is not extremely accurate. Of course, if you follow the directions and test the trigger pull 3 times, then the average of the three try's is pretty close. Worked fairly well on a Keltec PF-9 and a Remington 700, but was difficult to use on a Glock 17. I think the issue was because of the trigger safety design on the Glock. Can be difficult to pull the safety and the trigger properly with the hook for the test. However, it can be done with a bit of patience. All in all, it's not very expensive and can give you a reasonable trigger pull weight, and not break the bank. I would recommend it to others with the caveat that you're not purchasing a finely machined piece of equipment,

This is the simplest way of getting an accurate reading on the pull weight. The device is uncomplicated and works nicely. Hard to think how one can do trigger adjustments without it. Great value for money,

Only reads up to 8 lb pull. Have some triggers that have higher pull so will have on order another tool that can read the trigger pull. It is a good tool, only limited in its capability. Easy to use, simple design, no batteries or assembly required.

This is a common and inexpensive trigger gauge. It is only accurate to .2 lbs per mark on the gauge, but it's easy to use, and that accuracy is good enough. If I remember correctly, the gauge only goes up to 8 lbs trigger pull. After changing springs the trigger pull on a Ruger LCP II 22 went up to 7.8 which I felt decreased the accuracy of shots significantly compared to a 2.8 lb trigger pull on my P17. So I switched to an MCarbo trigger spring package which reduced the trigger pull by about two lbs to 5.8 on the LCP II which might just have to be good enough. All the cool people have trigger pull gauges!

Never used one before, I did help my Brother with his firearm

Fit and finish look surprisingly good for a trigger-pull gauge costing less than 20 bucks. The pull mounts smoothly and leaves behind a marker at the maximum weight attained. There's nothing fancy about this gauge, but it should suffice for anyone needing a +/- 2-ounce reading of where their trigger is breaking. Also, since this gauge maxes out at 8 pounds, it might very well come up short for measuring double-action handgun triggers, which often break at up to 10 or 12 pounds. But if your need is for measuring less than 8 pounds of pull and you're okay with 2 ounces either way, this gauge is pretty hard to beat for the money.
