The TANDEMKROSS Victory Trigger is a flat-faced, skeletonized trigger upgrade for the TaurusTX™ 22, built from aerospace-grade aluminum with adjustable pre- and post-travel screws. It is designed for the TaurusTX™ 22 owner who wants meaningful improvement of their trigger feel and competition shooters who want a consistent, repeatable trigger pull across fast strings of fire.

Who Should Use the Victory Trigger
Ideal Use Cases
- Competitors running Rimfire Pistol Open (RFPO) or Iron Sights (RFPI) who need a shorter, crisp trigger pull for faster splits between targets.
- SCSA, RCSA, MMSSA, or SASP rimfire division shooters looking to reduce travel and tighten reset for more consistent stage runs.
- High-volume trainers who want a trigger that feels identical rep after rep, across hundreds of rounds in a single session.
- TX22 owners frustrated with trigger take-up and who want to address it without replacing the entire pistol.
- Buyers evaluating trigger upgrade options for their TX22 who want an adjustable option backed by a lifetime warranty and Made in the USA
Key Advantages
- Aggressive Texture: Promotes consistent finger placement on the trigger face, making it easier to detect left or right pull deviation. A curved trigger allows finger position to shift between shots; a flat face does not.
- Adjustable pre-travel: The pre-travel set screw lets the shooter eliminate slack before the break, creating a shorter, more deliberate pull without changing the factory sear engagement.
- Adjustable post-travel: The post-travel set screw limits overtravel after the break, shortening the distance the trigger must travel before resetting, and reducing time between shots.
- Flat-Faced Design: Flat design provides the perception of a lighter pull thanks to improved finger positioning and leverage
Limitations to Know Before You Buy
- Safety feature removal: Installing the Victory Trigger eliminates both the trigger safety and striker block safety present in the factory TX22 trigger group. This is standard for dedicated competition builds but should be understood before installation.
- Sold as trigger only: The Lightened Trigger Spring is sold separately. The Victory Trigger improves the trigger feel on its own, but most shooters pair both together for the best result.
- Pre- and post-travel adjustment requires care: The adjustment screws must be set correctly before use. Improper adjustment can result in a trigger that will not reset or a pistol that cannot be field-stripped. Set screws should be secured with thread-locker once the preferred position is found.

Victory Trigger FAQs
How difficult is installation, and does it require gunsmithing or special tools?
Installation is a DIY job that does not require gunsmithing. See our PDF or installation video for instructions. The critical step is setting the pre- and post-travel adjustment screws correctly before use. Too much pre-travel adjustment can prevent the trigger from resetting, and too little post-travel clearance can cause issues during field stripping. Apply thread-locker to hold the position.
Will the Victory Trigger affect the TX22's reliability with different .22 LR ammunition?
No, the Victory Trigger replaces only the trigger shoe. It does not modify the striker, hammer spring, or firing mechanism, so your TX22's cycling and ignition with different .22 LR ammunition remains unchanged.
Is the Victory Trigger compatible with both the TX22 Competition and TX22 Standard?
Yes. The Victory Trigger is compatible with the TaurusTX™ 22 Standard, TaurusTX™ 22 Competition, TaurusTX™ 22 Compact, and TaurusTX™ 22 T.O.R.O.. It is not specific to one variant. For TX22 Competition accessories beyond the trigger, see the TaurusTX™ 22 Competition page. For the Standard, see the TaurusTX™ 22 Standard page.
What other upgrades pair well with the Victory Trigger?
The Lightened Trigger Spring for TaurusTX™ 22 is the most common pairing as it reduces trigger pull weight on its own. We've received feedback from customers who have installed both and describe the combination as the most noticeable improvement to the TX22's shooting feel. After addressing the trigger, the next upgrade most competition shooters move to is a compensator for muzzle control. The Game Changer PRO Squared Compensator for .22LR is a natural next step for a TX22 competition build.

Victory Trigger TX22
This trigger does what they say it will do, fits perfectly, doesn’t cost a fortune and improves an already excellent pistol. I set the pre and post travel screws AGGRESSIVELY as a result total trigger movement us only a few millimeters. In combination with the lighter spring, the action of this little blaster is truly world class!

Victory Trigger Taurus TX 22
Tandemkross is the gold standard for after market products. I have purchased items for several guns and I am very pleased with the products and service. This should be the first place you go to for quality products.

Great looking trigger
The "follow along" instructional video is a 10 out of 10. There is a bit to this installation but the video makes it doable. I didn't time myself but I would guess somewhere in 30 min range. It looks great. The post travel is like the factory take-up which is outstanding. I wish that I would have backed out the pre travel screw a little more before I put everything back together. I may take it back apart to do that. The trigger feels smoother through the travel to the wall than the factory trigger, and feels more crisp at the break. I recommend this upgrade to anyone who has the confidence to install it.
