Gunsmithing gunsmith advise

[Ragin_cajun]

has anyone tried to change both springs on an x mark pro trigger? i know a timney will always be better and i have one in the works but just to play with i heard the to spring was very simple to change and dropped the trigger pressure down a pound or so but has anyone change the bottom spring to a lightweight spring also? and if so what where to results? im trying to stay away from the sear adjustments as much as possible but i figured it should drop pretty low with both springs swapped to lightweight springs. im not to cheap to buy another trigger im just curious and already ordered a few springs so its just something for me to toy with

just be careful. the proper way is to correct sear angles to neutral then set the springs that are there. The X marks I tune are a very crisp 2lb and up depending on the end user.

light springs alone will make it light but mushy

Re: gunsmith advise

ok ill just try a jard 14 ounce kit what do you guys think about that? do you think they are worth it or should i let the gunsmith do it? i was thinking of trying it myself and if i got it right then i would take it and pay him to make sure it is safe (sear engagement and such) i dont want an unsafe gun

Re: gunsmith advise

That really depends on how light you want your trigger. If it's a field gun, 14oz is too light, IMO. Sear angle adjustment is the proper method.
