Welcome Ken, sorry to hear you have arthritis. Fortunately it hasn't caught up to me yet but my wife has it and I know it does restrict her motion, strength, and abilities... something you need to properly control your trigger squeeze. Anyhow, the trigger pressure will have no effect on the power of your guns. What you probably want to do is lighten the trigger force needed to fire them, and that can be accomplished by carefully polishing the engagement surfaces and lightly lubricating them. Also using lighter springs in some models. As long as you still have control over the break point lightening the trigger pull will help improve your ability to hit the target consistently. All the best,
:drinkers:
