replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
I just bought a spring UNKNOWN poundage at my local ACE hardware store. Works fine,trigger pull is great. I have had no problems so far. What say you?

Hopefully it will hold up and not fail you if you really really and I do mean really need it if it is a defense carry.

What was going on with the other spring? Broke?
Re: replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
No the spring did not break,But it took two men and a gorilla to pull the trigger...I replaced it with two springs.The first is a tighter fitting spring that fits snug on the hammer strut,the other slips over the smaller diameter spring.In the event one fails I will still be able to fire the weapon.total cost, $2.50 tax included...,I don't carry the P-64 as a defense weapon,I use a Glock 26 for that. I mainly use it to finish off deer. The flap holster works great in a hunting environment and the extra mag is good to have.. .

In other words, you changed the hammer spring not the trigger spring.
Re: replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
Yes just the hammer spring.Now the trigger is great.Fires with no problems.Love it.
Re: replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
Was there any part number on the new spring or anything else to identify it?
Re: replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
No there was not number on the springs...
Re: replacing trigger spring on P-64 ACE HARDWARE spring.
Just take the spring and the hammer strut you have to the hardware store and find two springs that fit like i described. Good luck. I have put over 50 rounds through it with no issues.
