Military handguns tend to have heavy trigger weights, the plagerism machine says 5-8 lbs.
Depends on the model, but yes. The USGI 1911 spec was 5.5-6.5 lbs, but that's not exactly a heavy pull. Especially with the short, single stage pull of the 1911 platform. It's not a rapid fire competition gun, but certainly not something you'd have to do hand workouts for.
Never the less, a couple pounds more pressure standing between someone's life and their brains panting a wall is immaterial to the violence in this picture.
