MUCH MO BETTA
Posted: May 3rd, 2016, 7:40 pm
Just installed a Wolff 19 pound hammer spring and a 20 pound recoil spring, which arrived yesterday. Watched the video that Scootch did on it, read the threads here, and just did it. Required tools: an inexpensive table top vice from Lowes, a couple of pieces of duct tape to serve as a pad for the vice, a punch, and a paperclip.
I'm not the most mechanically-inclined guy on the planet, but I got it done in under 30 minutes (including watching and pausing Scootch's video and referring to the thread here). Filed down the ends of the recoil spring as suggested, and it seems to function much better - that horrid trigger pull has been greatly tamed. Still stout, but not herneatingly so anymore. Much mo betta feeling trigger, and the mag release seems to be improved a bit. I can hardly wait for the Marschal grips to arrive, and it should be a sweet little EDC once it's all said and done.
Gonna take it out to the range tomorrow morning when I get off work, expend some ordinance, and see if it handles any better. I suspect it's gonna. Breakfast at IHOP, and upgraded P64, and a box (or so) of ammo - Hoo Yah, life don't get much better.
