has anyone done a trigger job on the aeron chameleon. i have one of these and like it other than the quality of the trigger. it rolls then stops then creeps and then the shot breaks. try holding your concentration on sight alignment through all that!

I have shot them and they don't seem bad to me but I guess it is what you get used to. Can't help on a smith for this one.

Semi auto trigger

The Chameleon was developed directly from the 5-shot B96. This is why it cocks itself automatically. The trigger is a long roll typical of many Euro semi autos, the theory being you keep the finger moving smoothly, and timed and rapid fire is a lot more successful. Of course some people find being positive on trigger release and NOT stopping more difficult in slow fire. Basically, if you adopt a stop/start approach with a roll trigger the results won't be very good. On the other hand, driving the trigger, and "steering" the front sight with the trigger movement, resulting in a quicker release, can work spectacularly well.
