LP10 Alu trigger blade

Steyr sell a broader longer, curvier aluminium trigger blade that replaces the 'standard' plastic blade.

However, the former is only adjustable in reach, drop and rotation around the drop axis. You cannot rotate it around the axis parallel to the direction of pull (as you can the plastic trigger).

The Alu trigger really feels nice - a large area of contact, nice crisp grooves that make positioning on the trigger finger easy, and it 'feels' nice: really nice.

However, I would like to tweak it just a little around that missing axis.

Why isn't that 4th axis there and is there a solution to my dilema?

The aluminum trigger on my LP1 can be rotated about an axis parallel to the direction of pull, as can the aluminum trigger on my LP50. In fact on both guns I have rotated the trigger as you suggest to make it feel 'better'. I'm not familiar with the LP10, but am surprised that it lacks what is on the LP1 and LP50.
