hodge911 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) well its started after watching a few very good informative videos on you tube I,ve reduced my trigger pull from a measured 7- 8lb down to 3 - 4lb all fine no misfires and the safety still works spot on . [measured with gauge]so then went on to polish the bolt and receiver as In another video tightened the magazines in the receiver with another mod as per video the next and last thing on my list of little improvements is to float the barrel .and I have really enjoyed spending a couple hours tinkering .[may I point out that I am really quite mechanically minded having been a motor mechanic / mot tester since leaving school 30+ years ago ] so doing these mods does not phase me in the slightest Edited November 26, 2014 by hodge911 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a fiddle but well worth it:-) yeah mate watched a very good video on a website called project junkie where he takes you through it step by step and as I have a set of different grade diamond stones for sharpening my chisels etc it was really quiet a simple task I just took my time and only done a couple of passes at a time to ensure I did not remove too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Juicer Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) I stoned mine, but later put in a v quarts en hammer which took it down to around 2.5 lbs. Just have to remember it's very easy to fire now. I've to get around to using the bedding kit I have. Checkout rimfire central, an American forum with guides.

Checkout rimfire central, an American forum with guides. completely agree mate but as its this close to that fat man in the red suit with the white arriving funds for treating myself are not available but after the turn of the year when I can put some pennies away for myself I will probably put a trigger kit in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
