Trigger Slop

[ryanshep]

Well i just traded my vik for a sweet ule e-mag and im loving it......

anyways, its got a Lt-3 trigger on it. The trigger has a lot of trigger slop and i can get 1-3 shots per pull because of it. Is there anything i can do to stop this? i think if i messed with the shot buffer it might be able to do something but im really not sure which way means less bounce. I also noticed that the trigger pin that holds the trigger in place isnt quite all the way in, if i was to push this all the way in would it take away some slop? Thanks for ur help

get a 10/32 bit and drill a hole in the trigger shoe and put in a trigger stop.

[ryanshep]

slop meaning rocking from side to side....i dun see how a trigger stop would effect that....

[AGDlover]

how many mm's are we talking side to side? if anything if its soo bad you can pop out the trigger pin and put small spacers out of a erector set and pop em in

[ryanshep]

its a good 1-2 mm's... i would do that if only i had an erector set

if worse comes to worst ill just play with it its not that bad........

then run to your local hardwear store and pick up some small warshers/spacers

[jewie27]

not spacers, shims would work. i read wrong that's why i said trigger stop.

[AGDlover]

don't use shims because even though there thin they have too big of an opening so they would slide out every which way. just o to the hard wear store and get some washers

[ryanshep]

or ill just leave it how it is, oh well

thanks for all ur guys help

You can buy round shims. They look just like washers only thinner. If not, get some shim stock and drill and cut your own shims. I have shims in my trigger assembly and it really tightens up the pull. It makes it much more crisp and predicatable.
