Are triggers that easy to pull? I have no gun experience. Id say that it should be as hard to pull as a lighter but.. in all reality? Children dont kust find guns. So in conclusion this comment was pointless. Nice.

That depends on the gun. That looks to be a Browning Hi-Power. Factory trigger weight should be anywhere from 7-10 pounds, which is relatively stiff for a single action only gun like that. Removing the pointless magazine safety and/or polishing trigger group components could change that significantly.
I own one and all I have done to it is remove the magazine safety. It must be closer to 5-7 pounds, although I don't have a trigger gauge.
Regardless, the average revolver would be a lot more difficult for a toddler to fire while playing with it than something like a Hi-Power with its safety off.
Not sure what you mean by lighter, one of those ones with the trigger and a long neck? In that case it basically operates like a double action only striker-fired gun in that the action of pulling the trigger is also cocking a striker so that it can release and slam into a piezoelectric crystal to generate a spark. This would be more comparable to a double action revolver (with the hammer down) or specific DAO semi autos. Since semi auto handguns can cock the hammer or striker automatically after each shot as the slide cycles, their trigger pulls are typically much shorter and lighter than that sort of lighter, especially if they've been fired once already and/or have the hammer cocked back.
