A while back I was looking for trigger shoe's for my guns. What I found did not give any dim. to let you know if it would fit your gun.
So I made my own. In doing so, I found out triggers vary in width. An other forum member needed one for his FWB124, so I made him
one. Now I am wandering how many more members could use one? If there were, PM me. Here is my CAD
pic on what they look like. Just PM me. Craig
The dim. 5/8 wide X 1 1/8 tall, finger area !/2 rad, Trigger rad is 5/8. Made from Alum.
Here are some pic of my Mrod and FWB124 shoes I made before finished sanding and polishing. Craig

I made my own as well, but took a different approach - minimalist and very grippy. Use your fingertip only.
Inverse waffle pattern made with a .020” wide slitting saw. I left the burrs on for extra grip.
Also did some larger shoes before settling on the above design:

Shoes are a Love / Hate sort of accessory. Some folks want or need the shape change or a differing finger distance to trigger. Some instances the "SHOE" can be profiled or positioned in such a way the leverage or feel of a trigger can be much improved. Some use them for bling appeal.
I use them time to time and have fabricated specialty designs as well.
Nice work on those !

Some nice looking work guys.
I've been considering trigger shoes since I lost the tip of my trigger finger to an accident. But then I'd have to have almost a dozen trigger shoes made up for all my airguns. Little by little, I'm adapting. It's the lack of feeling in my left index finger that hampers me the most. Luckily, I can shoot pistols with either hand.

I added shoes to a couple of my 13XX lego builds... I can take them or leave them.
