One trigger strategy is “tit for tat.” This is a strategy used in multi-period game play wherein player X responds to a player Y’s strategy in one period of play by repeating it themselves in the next period of game play.
Grim trigger is a severe trigger strategy since a single defection brings about an eternal end to cooperation, in contrast to the much more forgiving tit for tat.

 Folk theorem (game theory) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A grim trigger strategy is a strategy which punishes an opponent for any deviation from some certain behavior.
Then the players need only adhere to an almost grim trigger strategy under which any deviation from the strategy which will bring about the intended outcome is punished to a degree such that any gains made by the deviator on account of the deviation are exactly cancelled out.
Thus, there is no advantage to any player for deviating from the course which will bring out the intended, and arbitrary outcome, and the game will proceed in exactly the manner to bring about that outcome.

Their adultery, and the negligence of the king in retaliating for the offence, sets in motion a grim trigger.

Grim Trigger Punishment: A trigger strategy in game theory for a repeated game, such as an iterated prisoner's dilemma.
Initially, a player using Grim Trigger will cooperate, but as soon as the opponent defects (thus satisfying the trigger condition), the player using Grim Trigger will defect(the punishment) for the remainder of the iterated game.
Since a single defect by the opponent triggers defection forever, Grim Trigger is the most strictly unforgiving of strategies in an iterated game.

You may find that although the trigger is easy to squeeze, semi auto performance may be poor as the spring may sluggishly disengage the trigger when you let go.
Also, the gloved finger may not feel the trigger before shots are fired.
If you really want to lighten your trigger pull, either stretch your trigger return spring, or regrind the trigger/sear surfaces so their release is shorter and lighter.
