My husband bought an NP pistol. I hate it. The rear sight keeps moving. I'm blind as a bat, so that is a problem for me. The cocking of the gun is a problem too. I own break barrel guns, but that one is a pain in the @$$. I don't shoot it. I'll save my money for another 2240  ;)

Dave, do you have a link to any trigger mods?
I put in a longer adjuster screw & while it shortened the travel it did nothing for the pull weight.

Sorry, just getting back to this thread.  The mod is simple.  The Youtube videos (two) are lame.  One has the guy using a ring off a key-chain (it works, though) and the other has the guy cussing the whole time.  Watch them if you want, but here is the gist of it.

Take the pin out of the trigger.  Slide a small metal washer with the same ID as the pin (or very close) into the split / channel in the rear of the trigger... and then put the pin back through the center of the washer.... re-install the circlip. 

If it is too sensitive, get a smaller OD washer or file/grind that one smaller.  If it is not sensitive enough, go larger.  Making this pin/shaft ride higher removes the trigger draw length (travel) required to fire.  My understanding is that if you go too large it will fire when you look at it!   :o

just came upon this thread  while looking for trigger fixes for my np pistol.if anyone is interested what i did was remove my adjuster screw and install it from the back side with loctite and adjusted it with the least travel i could before it engaged the bear trap safety then i polished the head of the screw which now contacts the trigger i also cleaned up the sears a little for a smoother trigger. the trigger spring is integrated into the safety spring so i had a real problem trying to bend the spring to reduce pull weight eventually ruining the spring so what i came up with was a safety pin cut to fit to replace stock pin i did find one that reduced trigger pull and still made the safety usable i still have a heavy pull but it is a lot shorter,lighter and smoother than stock and for me was the best solution i found so far...i got about 1k rounds through it and its starting to shoot pretty damn good with open stock sites (tightend up some) it out shoots me....hope this is helpful to someone.....good luck
