If you pull a set of sidelocks and triggers off an english gun. In the main the sears sit paralell
to each other and are efectivly mirror copies of each other.
The triggers share the same fulcrum but the rear is about twice the distence from the fulcrum and discribes a different arc.

You can get them the same, but not at too light a weight as if the front trigger trips the sear at 4lbs say then the rear trigger would have to have a sear that trips at half that weight to maintain the same trigger weight.

So in the above instence you could have a rear sear that trips at 2lbs, I would not be happy with that especially on a hard recoiling gun.

Now if both triggers were made to trip at 8 lbs then perhaps that would be OK.

The math is not quite that simple however I hope you get my drift. The figures are made up by the way for exemplar purposes only.
