its beyond easy, 5mm allen to get the group out then a 2mm (I think) to adjust the 1st stage and a 2.5mm to adjust the second stage. When i got mine, I did not like how heavy the first stage was, I had it lessened in all of 5 seconds. I feel its the easyest of any Rifle I know of.

Re: trg 42 trigger adjustment ?
Correct. It is easy. Like stated, do not adjust the second stage down too low. It will malfunction. The second stage will engage during the first stage take up, and freeze up.

Hey 11,
Yes. It never would go off when bump checking it. During the first stage take up when it was adjusted too low, the second stage would engage, and lock the trigger up. You would have to cycle the bolt to reset, and the same thing would happen again. I was trying to go as light as possible, and went too far. It is still a very light trigger, maybe a 14 to 16 oz second stage pull weight. It functions perfect when not set too low. This was when the rifle was fairly new, and I have about 1600-1700 rounds down range since. The trigger is what really sold me on this rifle. It is the best system I have shot, and I have shot a ton of different rifles.
