It would, in a way, by putting less resistance in the circuit compares to trigger contact. So your motor will get slightly larger current (assuming everything unchanged) and being able to pull the spring slightly faster. The difference is small in most cases.

Have you tried to do some cleaning, shimming and regreasing to the gearbox before?
(I know you don't think there was a ton of friction but some friction is enough to make the issue you had. )
Have you checked if your trigger contacts have a lot of deposite building up?
Does your wire or connector get hot much?
Is there any parts not stock? What spring does it have?
If you think the current drain is too much for the battery, you may also need a RC watt meter (www.dx.com/p/183523 ) to diagnosis it.

The thing is, the issue you described shouldn't happen even with 9.6V or 7.4V. Instead of "cover it up" with 11.1V or advanced MOSFET, it would be better to find out the true cause of it.
