Most casual shooters don't know what ideal fit is about. They use them as is not knowing any better. Most people and myself don't have a problem with Weihrauch trigger reach but there's a fair amount of avid shooters that do. There's aftermarket set back triggers available for a reason. Many high end rifles come with adjustable reach triggers to facilitate better ergonomics.Never noticed or thought about this until reading about it here. I have no reach problems with any of my HW’s. And neither did my kids when they would shoot them. Must have some very short fingered folks on here.
It's not that Weihrauch longer trigger reach makes them unusable. It's that it just makes them less than ideal for shooters with small hands and or short fingers. If you want the most accuracy and fun from a rifle, a good fit goes a long way. You can shoot any rifle but you always want that indescribable feeling you get from your favorite good fitting rifle. That feeling comes from a number of different form factors. For some people that includes an ideal trigger reach.
