The Wheeler Trigger Pull Scale (Wheeler Engineering part no. 309888) is a precision gunsmithing tool built to measure trigger pull weight from 8 ounces up to 8 pounds. An ergonomically shaped handle keeps your pull direction consistent test after test, while bold increment markings and a sliding indicator make the reading easy to see and hold at the peak weight registered. It is the tool serious gunsmiths and home shooters alike reach for when tuning a trigger job, checking safety margins, or verifying a build meets a shooting discipline’s minimum pull weight. Compact and durable enough for the bench or the range bag, it takes the guesswork out of trigger work.
