Well since my Emag trigger isnt as functional as I want it in E-mode, I decided to play with it in manual (however a new trigger assembly is in the mail thx to AO headcase, thx bro i really really owe you one).
I was playing with the Micro-E and at the same time, my normal PF Micro with benchy frame. I really noticed the difference between the two in terms of side to side play. The benchy had monstrous play while the AGD trigger was exceptionally tighter in tolerances.
Thing I noticed or atleast didnt notice was the difference in feel when ripping the trigger. They both pretty much felt the same. Does side to side "slop" suppose to affect trigger speed? Or is it just an indicator of the quality put into the product? In theory wouldnt less play be bad since theres more of a chance of the trigger and frame bindin adding more friction?
I wanted everyones opinion on this. When the new trigger comes in, I was thinking of adding shims to the sides of the trigger to eliminate play completely, but wasnt too sure if this was a good idea. I know everyone here is already thinking "you want the trigger tighter, but not too tight" which gives a very vague answer that seems to boil down to preference rather than a set tolerance value. I was gonna set a poll here, but figured since tolerances/preferencfes come down to the thousandsth of an inch, the poll would have way too many options.
Also, to ppl who have done this, how is it, and where is the best place to get small/thin washers/shims for the trigger? Also, is there a way to tighten the tolerances between the trigger and trigger pin? That should aid in removing side slop.
LMK All.

P.S. I know this may be annoying you by now headcase, but thx man for the trigger.

) I took the trigger, set it in a vise, threw the trigger pin in the hole, wrapped a rubber band around the ends of the trigger pin sticking out to hold it down, and began tapping all around the hole very slowly and gently at first with a ball peen hammer. This will draw the aluminum all around the trigger rod for a nice tight fit, HOWEVER...this requires incredibly extensive fitting, because with one more hammer blow, you could get the perfect tolerances, but with two blows, you could get it too tight and now your trigger pin is stuck. (a hole punch(?) is good to have around)
