AR-15 trigger work
Posted: Thu Jul 19, 2007 6:51 pm
I bought a Rock River Arms National Match AR-15 a couple of months ago that has the RRA two stage trigger.
Trigger pull was 5.5lbs out of the box. Being new to the AR, looking at the cost of parts, and figuring that I would screw up at least one hammer and trigger, I started looking for someone to lighten the pull.
I found a guy on the AR-15.com forum by the name of Bill Springfield whose work was highly touted.
After a couple of e-mails back and forth about what I wanted, I mailed the trigger, hammer, springs and safety switch to him.
Took 6 days from sending to receiving the parts. Cost $32.00 with return postage included.
Got the parts installed and and now have a 26oz. pull with no creep and no overtravel. I don't have a clue as to what he did other than put a slight bend in the hammer spring but it is a sweet trigger now.
Passes all the "bump tests" and safety on, pull trigger, safety off tests.
I can't make the hammer fall without pulling the trigger.
Anyone interested, I'll post his e-mail address.
