adjusting trigger pull On Superblackhawk
I was reading an edition of handgunner magazine today and there was an article in there that says you can reduce the amount of trigger pull by half simply by removing your grips and unhooking one side of the double tension spring.
I tried this and it does work, it is much nicer, my question is is this detrimental to the firearm in anyway?

Works great on mine, but I was told that you could only do this to the new model rugers.

I've reworked the trigger pull on the .22 new model, those beginning 1973 I believe. One of them is now at about two ounces, but would not recommend anything that light, especially in a .44 Mag.
To get the pull down about 2 1/2 pounds, you just take down one of the legs of the trigger return spring. If you want to go light, then more has to be done. By the way, I did not touch the sear engagement, no stoning of the action.

Nope, won't hurt it. What you did on your Ruger is called the "poor man's trigger job". I do it to all my Rugers, except my 3 screws. The 3 screws don't need it.
