I pulled my first (trigger) job today...
...and my second.
First was on the GSG practice piece and I'm actually a little impressed with the quality of the sear and dis-connector in it. I used the Ed Brown sear tool and a couple brownell stones. Job went really smooth and took about 1/2 hour. Haven't shot it yet and haven't adjusted the pull weight. It's at 5.25# and feels so good I may leave it. Since I have the "big head on" with the ease of the GSG job, I took on the RIA .45 GI. Oh what a difference there is in the parts quality. ;^) I took a little longer with the RIA and polished a few things, replaced the sear spring with a Colt sear spring. Now she have a crisp 5# pull and I can't wait to get to the range. I'm learning as I go with small steps and finding that if I read re-read and UNDERSTAND the directions, it's really fun and not so scary after all. (and a ton of fun) If you don't have patience, a little mechanical ability and proper tools, DON'T DO THIS YOURSELF. It's not terribly difficult but it is easy to error. Proceed at your own risk.
