MSV-2 vs. Cheater trigger pull

[Tek2974]

Ok, should the trigger pull be about the same for both? The trigger pull on my MSV-2 is quite a bit longer and not nearly as responsive. Should they be close and maybe I need a new MSV-2?

It all depends on how you have the MSV positioned and the length of your trigger pin

It's great that the MSV gives you the flexibility to fine tune your trigger feel but well... it requires some fine tuning

I would love to be able to answer this, but after all this time of messing with it I still cannot get my cheater to work.


The MSV2 pull can be very very short and soft. It's all in the build. Dirge has a pneu set up where the pull is almost a hair.

My main problem is that it's in a z-frame, which makes it a to work on. Also it has a luke's blade trigger in, not sure whether I like it or not...ya know what, I'm just going to upload some pics.....

gunangel had a MSV-2 set up on a z-frame. Ask him.

yeah, i bought his z-mag, way too much slop in the trigger pin and area (no offense gun)

Just curious... which grip frame did you use? All of them?

Any suggestions on setup/pin location.



Yes the powdercoat bubbled, had the original hole gun put in tig welded closed. Won't notice once I get everything anno'd

I have built a couple Z grip frames pneumags. Here are a couple pics of the internals. The green/yellow one is my personal gun the "ZX" and the primary one in my arsenal of many. The red one is one that I built for a guy here on AO. Personally I liked the built in the red one better, it was the second one I had built and learned a little from my ZX build.







Then there is this one! It took so much work and time to complete I forgot to take any pictures of it finished before I sent it back to the owner. Hopefully one day it will resurface finished with lots of pictures of the internals. I had to create parts to make this on and was very proud of the finished product. I only wish I had pictures of all that hard work. Sleeper and it worked great!



Hopefully this will help you with your question.

How did you mount the plate that holds the msv? Drill throug the back of the frame? And how much do you charge to do a full setup like that?

I drilled through the back of the frame and countersunk the flat head socket screws. PMing.
