@@apexpredatoroutdoors8308 huge help, I have 5 mil spec triggers and have been wondering how to improve them. I’m 1/2 way through your process, gotta get some flat honing stones. I’m truly thankful!
I stone/polish the engagement face on my triggers but never checked the hammer heel clearance. Good stuff. They end up around 3.8 lbs which works for me.
Thanks! I'll make a part 2. I like a trigger with minimal movement and pull weight. If I could have a trigger with zero perceptible travel, I'd be all about that. I get as close as possible.
@@apexpredatoroutdoors8308 ironically my first milspec was just a part of a psa kit that is one of the best I've got for my uses.... it's already tight tight against the wall, I'd does have about a 3.5-4lb depending on my point of measure so I'm comfortable hunting and carrying but no grit, very little post travel, and super positive reset. Recently got a gieselle nearly half off on another psa sale. That shit is almost scary. Not comfortable with using as a hunt field ....least not yet till I try some more preseason testing to see what will/won't make it go.
@@ishnifusmeadle I do like a double set trigger for hunting, but otherwise anything less that 2 5 is asking for trouble. It's usually pretty cold during deer season here, and 3 to 3 5 seems to work well for that.
@@apexpredatoroutdoors8308 I totally agree. I got the gieselle ssa (as it is suppose to have a higher pull thru the stages than the common ssa e, but mine seems to break at the specs very close to the ssa e which is between 1.5-2.5 lbs lighter than the other. So it's too scary for me to hunt with. It gets cold here too (New England) and I could totally see it Goin off with gloves, but they informed me they sell a cheap spring kit that basically turns the poundage up a couple so I'm lookin into that. I love my psa, but that one I can't seem to stop pulling shots with. Still got work to do to it, but for now ima just get the spring kit for my new one. I love the vids for ur 80% build as I've got alot of various 80% builds of various platforms Goin on, I like tinkering and light machining, and the pride that comes with having at least doctored each piece even if it's not scratch built.
I think, um, yes about that, um... but uh, you can see how, our, ah, ahh, oh shit; I thought you would like to watch my grey carpet while I learn English !
This is one of the best videos I have watching explaining everything on these triggers! Thank you !! Great upload!
Thank you very much for your kind words, and I'm glad it helped!

Best demo of the FCG I’ve ever seen on RUclips
Thank you!
Awesome video. Thanks.
Use some blue steel dykum or a black sharpie on trigger where it engages the the hammer it will show you how much creep you have.
Thank you
I did mine got it from 7 lbs down to 3.5 pounds!!
Excellent!
