Nope, not supposed to do that. I suspect that something may be amiss with your safety...

Or the trigger pin may be threaded out too far. AGD's tech manuals usually say that when gassed up, the trigger pin should be ~1/16" from the trigger when it's all the way forward (stick a 1/16" allen wrench in there to check), and when the trigger is pulled, the trigger should stop ~1/16" from the back of the frame.

If the trigger rod was out too far then he'd most likely have some serious issues. Probably just the safety...

I have my Benchmark frame set up the same way on my RT, firing w/ the safety on. Works great for me. Very short trigger pull and just about eliminates short-stroking.

So is there no "slack" or "take-up" before you get resistance from pulling the trigger?

A tiny bit. I have slightly less than 1/16" gap between the rod and trigger.
