[Zorminster]

I need to know how hard a trigger job is to do, how to do it, a site with pictures of it being done, any other really good Automag websites. Im getting a mag very soon i hope and im trying to collect all the info i can. Also if i get the just buy an intelli-frame or other grip frame give me sites and prices... im feeling lazy =)

Trigger jobs

The proper way to do a trigger job on a Mag is....not to.

[Load SM5]

Yea, stock mag triggers are short enough as it is. The only good way to lighten them up is to shoot them a lot and break them in. Any sort of trigger job seems to involve grinding things down or messing with factory specs which means you gun will tear up faster. As far as where to buy...

There are no other AutomaG sites, this is the only one that has ever been made..............really..............no foolin'.................I'm not kidding.........................well, there was this other one, but it had a 'cocker forum so it doesn't count!

Trigger jobs for 'Mags were thought up by guys who wanted to make money off suckers who actually followed their erronious instructions. Doing anything other than simply using the gun will either:
1) destroy the trigger/sear/valve/bolt intermechanical relationship, or:
2) result in highly accelerated wear on the trigger/sear/valve/bolt, or:
3) all of the above.

Use your gun, learn your gun, live your gun, become one with your gun. I gotta quit drinking so much coffee

When people say don't do trigger work on mags what they mean is don't mess with the sear or trigger rod. The functional part of the trigger throw is already very short. The only thing you can do is install trigger stops. You can stop the back of the trigger at the point where the mag fires. There's not need for any backward motion beyond the actual firing point. Stoping the forward motion is a bit more iffy. If you stop it too far back the on/off wont open fully and you'll get serious shoot down. I recomend against a forward stop.

wouldn't buying a power tube spacer kit by....... Airgun Designs be the proper way to do it??

[Cha0tic]

no, SIG, it wouldn't do much.

Also, I've put thin brass washers between the trigger and frame, centered on the pivot point...

It doesn't really do much, except make the trigger have less side-to-side slop.

I've also painted the tip of the trigger rod, red. So I can easily tell if it's gassed up.
