A local gunshop I visit occasionally thankfully had a flat trigger to try out but it was only on an AR. Def. was an interesting feel. My curiosity with a flat trigger was brought up after my FFL dealer offered me a Triggertech diamond flat trigger at a discount as he never got around to using it for his custom build.Like others have said, it comes down to your own personal preference. The flat triggers feel better (more natural) to me on most pistols and rifles. Do I shoot better with them - dunno, but it's one less thing that I "think" about when getting into position. Have I swapped out the curved triggers on everything I own, nope.
My suggestion is to find a pistol or rifle with a straight trigger and try it - before buying a trigger set and new springs/lighter springs, tuning kits, etc...
I ended up telling my dealer that I would go with the flat trigger he was offeringI like flat triggers. They generally feel better to my fat fingers.
They're definitely worth a try.
