Good luck with it!
Did the function test, it passed fine. But.... It would pass that before.
The range will be the only real test. That screw was off a bit! I'm sure I turned it in about 1 and 1/2 turns. I also tested it as Keith said and using two hands SLOWLY let the hammer come down wile holding the trigger in, no catches on the sear or hammer at all. Think it will be ok.

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson
