There is a trigger mod for your gun that will turn it nearly into a match trigger The Winchester really is just a Hatsan but if you are confident enough to rip the trigger mech apart & able to put it back together again then let me know & I will send you the plans to do it.
I have done one myself and my mate Greyskull has done quite a few & after the polishing they shoot very nice.

Sean, send me the plans. A couple of other guys sent me some plans, but after looking at them, it seems that all they do is make the second stage more noticable. And replacing one of the springs with one from a pen, doesn't seem like it would decrease the trigger pull. And that is my main concern. The pull wieght is effecting my shooting. By the way guys - the PT80 came and the wife said
"Whats in the box?"
"And air pistol."
"Do you really need another airgun?"
"No. But they're fun."
"Where are you taking me for dinner?"
LOL

How was dinner?  hehe, nice move on her part, I hope you got her drunk and took advantage of her too:)

How do you like the 9 1/2 pound PT-80 trigger?  I hate blaming my poor shooting on my equiptment, but that trigger makes it very difficult to shoot the broad side of a barn.  For double action I guess 9+ pounds isn't bad, but for single action..........grrrrrrrrr.  It is a very solid little gun though, bet it will last pretty well.  Let us know how it works out.  If nothing else you can always return it, get the $70 you spent on it, which is close enough to $100, or $150 in "airgun money"....which really isn't that far off from buying a Gamo Compact at $225.....heck if you're gonna spend $225 on the Gamo Compact you may as well buy the Izzy 46, it's only a few bucks more.....besides, it's only airgun money.

With friends like us, who needs.............hehe, nevermind:)

Dano - You need your own HBO show. LOL The pistol sucks. The first 1 I bought was from pyramidair. Those !@#$'s sent me a used gun. So that went back. Then midwayusa came thru. The trigger pull is lousy but thats ok. I bought it for 2 reasons - it's a repeater and it had the best feet/second I could find.
As for dinner - cost more than the pistol. I'm dreading when she sees the Winchester in the truck some day. That'll cost me a trip somewhere. It's funny how these things work out some time. You know, sometimes I think I'm being sneeking when actually I'm not.
Hey, when you get your HBO show, can I tag along? :D

Dooooooood!!!!  

You didn't show her the Winchester when you showed off the PT-80?!?!?!?

I'm thinking a serious night out dinner, and not at "McDougal's Chicken Shack", you're gonna have to step up and take her to Chili's or something, pump her full of margeritas, then the next morning just be sitting in the livingroom messin' around with the Winchester.  When she says,"Where'd that come from?", you just answer,"don't you remember?  Ya know, last night when you said that you wanted to learn to shoot with me?"...no worries, if she's like my wife she wont be able to cock the Winchester, and she'll be so embarassed about promising to learn to shoot with you while she was drunk that she'll just say,"Honey, you keep that new gun warm for me, ok?".  This is a key moment and you can choose a few options right here....but be quick....you either:

a) answer,"Are you sure Honey, it's really for you"
b) answer,"Ok Honey, I'll take care of it"
c) take advantage of her and show her that you love her.

possible outcomes
a).....no, no, no, what if she says,"Ya know, you're right, let's just return it until I really deserve one of my own"
b) Pretty good option here, short and to the point.
c) Maybe a hug, after a few margeritas the night before she most likely has a headache, and of course her breathe can't be all that great either...

either way you're going to need more pellets, and if you're going to the store to pick pellets up, you may as well pick up another air rifle....I'm all about saving gas money:)

Ok will have to find the plans then will either post them or email to it's possible that you allready have them but trust me if you do it right it will make the pull weight go away.
I use to have to squese the hell out of my hatsan and couldnt hit the side of a barn with it but now it's sweet.

Try AA Field They seem to go well but then every gun is different I have found them to be very good in just about every gun I have.
