Arrgh....


Get my UPS delivered stuff in the morning at the main hub on hold for pick up in person.
Then I got about 3 or 4 hours tomorrow of trigger disassembly, polishing parts, and reassembly.
Factory setting this trigger is 5.25 pds.
Hoping to get it down to 4.50 maybe a hair above 4.25.
Install a Dawson adjustable tritium night sight.
Only mod I'm gonna do is clip 1.5 coil off the firing pin plunger spring.
I aint buying a spring kit just for a reduced power one.
All too easy to DIY.
Tommorow will be a enjoyable day.

Fugg paying a " smithy" for the same exact work and methods you can do yourself....
" Smithy,s" over rate their basic work skill to customers/ the gullible at times around here.
Most schit they do aint working on a mars rover.
Anyone with basic mechanical common sense and a good selection of hand tools can do this work.

Going OEM on the springs and connector minus the 1.5 clipped coil.
See how much improvement can be done versus mcarbo, apex, wolff, and ghost aftermarket stuff.



Yep, lots of tuning on Tupperware is swapping stuff and fooling with different/modified springs.

The 1911 not so much. Good tools and some knowledge to get good safe triggers.

Old chit vs new.

I enjoy getting decent 1911's cheap (or used to, before half the world went to chit) because somebody took it to a "smith" for trigger or reliability work and got it back in worse shape than it was to start with.

There are gun smiths and then there are gun plumbers. In my experience most really good smiths are excellent machinists.

Have fun!
