Hard work always pays off, and our personal sports experience has helped us create and discover new products to enhance the performance of these guns.
To win a competition, we need the perfect combination of a sports shooter and their handguns.
The shooter, driven by passion, must acquire both a cultural and technical understanding of the weapon and its usage, combining excellent safe handling with acute problem-solving skills to address malfunctions that can make or break their competition (or even their life if the shooter risks their life daily as a police officer). In addition to being skillfully controlled by the shooter, the firearm can satisfy the requests of its owner with the right upgrades that enhance its performance (or both), thus achieving a fantastic result together.
The created product must generate "savings," which can be in terms of time and/or money. The advantage of performance must also stem from the perfect combination of the shooter (with their tactics, strategy, experience, shooting technique, etc.) and the performance that the firearm can deliver, along with the benefits to be gained from the installed special parts (such as a better trigger system, a better grip, and other accessories). TR-1upgrade is born out of the needs of a sports shooter, arising from direct and firsthand experiences still encountered on shooting ranges today. It originates from both defensive and sport shooting. It grows and updates every day, creating new accessories and special parts based on the requests heard from all of you who love this sport and this world.
TR-1upgrade® follows proper design as an essential requirement for ensuring the quality of the product to be created.
The type of design can be "innovative" and/or "adaptive":
Development of a new product through the adaptation and revision of an existing article, improving it and providing aesthetic and mechanical upgrades.
Complete creation of a new accessory based on specific foundations.
All of this is thanks to the decade-long experience acquired in the field and the parallel developments carried out in collaboration with the best nationally and internationally recognized sports Testimonials in the dynamic shooting world.
The opposite or inverse operation to design is therefore the analysis of the characteristics/performance of an already produced product to verify its compliance and quality standards in relation to the design specifications.
If such specifications are not met, an iterative return to the logical-functional design phase is made, taking into account the missing requirements or specifications.
The most requested element is undoubtedly aerospace aluminum, which characterizes the majority of the created products. Lightness and strength are the two fundamental elements that characterize the raw material and aid in the technical and mechanical functions.
Following the actual implementation phase, there is then the testing phase of the proposed project, often passing through a stage of experimental prototyping or pilot installation. Once this stage is successfully completed, we proceed to the production phase of the product and then to the final testing phase of the completed work.
The trigger system called TR-1® (abbreviated from the English term Trigger – One) was specifically developed by Antonio Bruno in 2015 to enhance the performance of shooters using Glock and Beretta pistols in sport shooting and self-defense.
The modifications made to the mechanism, while keeping the weapon's safety features unchanged, have resulted in a smooth, fluid, and predictable trigger pull. This allows the shooter to perceive each phase of the trigger pull more clearly and sensitively, as certain disruptive elements have been eliminated, providing a clearer and more defined experience.
Once the TR-1® trigger system is installed in the handguns, replacing the original trigger assembly, the shooter can make adjustments to tailor the trigger pull to their preferences. These adjustments can be made without the need for additional and repetitive disassembly, by using a screwdriver to make changes the pre-travel, over-travel, and reset, which can be modified according to personal preferences using the adjustment screws. The expert craftsmanship applied to the leverages and subsequent manual adjustments ensure that any difficulties related to the trigger action are eliminated, allowing the shooter to quickly achieve accurate and precise shots.

Today, the TR-1® trigger kit has undergone significant evolution, expanding to include over 10 different versions and models.
