SFL Fireblade 4.0 FURY!

[RoadDawg]

I guess bulldog also had some "issue's" with his. Something about having to adjust the trigger rod which is a "no no" of AGD's. Anyways. It so far was a looks issue and I did notice it had some rather sharp edges. Just not up to my high standards I guess. To each their own though I guess.

[Steelrat]

Wow, thats really odd. Mine was beautifully finished. Quality control issue maybe? As far as the rod goes, im going to send it back for a fix or introduce it to Mr. Dremel. After a discussion with those who know a lot more about mag funtion than I do, adjusting the trigger rod doesnt seem like such a good idea. More work than expected? Yes, but you can't make an omelete without breaking a few eggs

damn that is a nice lookin gun..i might have to go to the AO day just to check it out

[Steelrat]

Just as long as you are not on the receiving end of it. Thats a scary place to be I should have my new (Classified) in by then, with the fireblade on it too.

[RoadDawg]

True true. I usually play w/o the trigger rod clipped in due to a mechnical bounce issue. It takes away the Manual aspect but I hardly used that anyway. All I can say is first impressions can be a lot and my first impression wasn't as high as I hoped. I do like the looks of the trigger though. I'm yet to see a classic mounted yet.

[Steelrat]

Yeah, the classic looks like a straight up clone of a tl-63, which in turn is a copy of the intelli blade. Not bad, but I have big meaty fingers, and need a big flat surface to work with. The fireblade is huge and wide, which is perfect for me. Plus, the xmags have a rather restrictive trigger guard, like the eblades, and I therefore use a fingertip method of walking, which requires a very wide trigger.

The best thing about having several neat triggers out there is that you can find one to suit your own style. I just know the standard double is "teh suck" as Z-man would say.

here here! AGD makes great stuff but someone's mind took a vacation when it was decided to ONLY make 2 finger triggers for the E-Mag line.

Look how bad it was wanted! CoolHand just just sold out his inventory selling a SIMPLE trigger for price of an Egg II loader! Not bashing you CoolHand, I chose (and quite happily chose) to spend that money for this tasty addition and it's everything I wanted.

Just for you Steel.

The last word on 'the rod',

And that red trigger looks great Zman,there's just something about that red trigger......

[Steelrat]

LOL, just for me indeed Without going into details, I just feel that the dremel or sending it in for alterations is the best policy for me. But that doesnt detract from my love of the trigger. It'll look great on my Xmag. Oops, did I just let that out?

[Z-man]

Not like it's a big shock to AO . How many have you gone through now? It's not even worth trying to keep up on my website

That was in regard to Mechanical triggers.

And pure nonsence IMO anyway.

[Z-man]

See now I wondered about that. I mean lets say that you have a trigger that is 1 foot further forward from the sear rod. If you have a 1 foot longe sear pin to reach it, that does NOT affect the action of the sear with regard to when it presses the on/off pin...

All that matters is how far the trigger can move the sear. Since that part is controlled largely by the fact that all the triggers have the same pivot point it would seem that in ANY TRIGGER SETUP you would want ~1mm of space between the trigger and the sear when the marker is gassed up.

That is 'exactly' right and precisely the reason why it's threaded in the first place.So that after final assembly,and all the various tolerances are stacked up,you can ADJUST THE ROD to be 'in spec' with regards to the trigger.

Amazingly simple huh.(or at least to some)

The ONLY arguement against adjusting the rod is if it already 'in spec'.
