  1. I use DAA racer mag pouches for MP9s. Now switching to Stock 2, I found these pouches are too small, even after I have replaced the plastic insert with the thinnest one. What I do notice is that if I take off the round dial all together, just let the thinnest insert backed up by the screw alone without the dial, the mags would fit perfectly. If anyone here uses DAA racer mag pouches for your large frame mags, what's your experience? Do you somehow "fit" these DAA racer mag pouches? Thanks.
  2. I see people dry firing CZs using rubber o-rings on the back of the firing pin to reduce the impact of repeated hammer hitting the firing pin. CZs firing pin protrudes out quite a bit, allowing the o-ring to stay in place. The Stock 2 firing pin does not protrudes out of the back though. For folks dry firing their Stock 2s a lot (1 hour/day, 5 days/week minimal), do you take any protective measure to reduce the wear and impacts? If so, could you please share some ideas? Thanks.
  3. Before I did anything to the T3 disco, I put it on and neither SA nor DA would fall. Then I did minimal removal, barely removed the sharpie mark, still neither SA nor DA would fall. I then did a bit more... so on. I did about 5 rounds of that, and still neither SA nor DA would fall. At that point, I realized the T3 disco is probably already ruined, or, maybe I have not removed enough material? I guess the key piece missing is, what behaviors characterize not enough material removed, and what would indicate too much have been removed?
  4. Thanks for the suggestions. I do not mind running Federal primers exclusively. Have 20k stocked up, but I usually use WSP. Last test on the range the gun ran 350 WSP with 100% ignition. Now with added 1 piece sear and reduced power sear spring, I need to test again. It does look like I could experiment with the hammer springs a bit. Thanks.
  5. I received the 1 piece sear and reduced power sear spring. Did 3rd round polishing while installing them. Polished the new sear piece and all the holes too. 600 grit, 1500 grit and 2000 grit. Also tried to fit the T3 disco for the 2nd time following the youtube video. Unfortunately from the time no material was removed to the point where a lot of material has been removed, hammer would not fall in neither DA nor SA. Not clear I went past or not enough. Comparing mine to the youtube video, I have about the same amount of materials removed, and I know the guy in the video said "this T3 will be ruined" in order to show the "waves" more clearly. Anyway, I put back the factory disconnector. Now my SA went down to 2 lbs 11 oz - very nice! So it looks like the 1 piece sear made a huge difference. However, my DA is still 7 lbs 11 oz range. I am not sure how to reduce DA pull now. It actually went up from barely 7 lbs to 7 lbs 11 oz after I put in the 1 piece sear. One thing I found is that using the factory trigger return spring reduces the SA weight by 5 oz over the CGW reduced power trigger return spring. It does not do anything to DA it seems. Here is what I have in the gun currently: 1. Titan hammer 2. 1 piece sear 3. CGW reduced power sear spring 4. Xtreme hammer spring light (13.8lbs) 5. Xtreme firing pin spring light 6. Xtreme firing pin safety 7. Xtreme firing pin safety spring 8. Canik trigger pin 9. factory trigger return spring 10. BIC click pen spring as trigger plunger spring 11. Woff 9lbs recoil spring 12. Henning guide rod 13. Xtreme firing pin Any ideas how to make DA pull below 7lbs? 6 lbs would be my goal but 6.5 lbs would be totally acceptable too! Thanks.
  6. Springer basepads are better IMO While you are at it, also add the Springer extended mag release - it makes life much easier and it's production legal Buy an APEX drop in barrel and you will be amazed how accurate the MP can shoot
  7. Fun to play but not accurate because obviously I am human People who play a lot of video games (including me) will excel at this. Not an accurate measurement of shooting related reaction time IMO
  8. I'd think this is the chrome surfaced extreme parts! Looks like it's time to go back to work and polish harder!
  9. OK. I got my Limited Pro today. Out of box, the trigger is amazing... 3 lbs 15 oz SA and 9 lbs 5 oz DA. I took the 1 piece sear in Limited Pro and put it in the Stock 2, well, at least now the T3 disco would allow the safety to be installed and the safety actually works when installed - the holes do align now. DA won't fall but that's expected, obviously I need to fit the T3 disco but it's at least in the gun. Looking back at my problems, I think the 2-piece sear on the Stock 2 is a major culprit. Will do more testing with the 1 piece sear later. Right now, I am comparing the 3 different disconnector... The Stock 2 factory is 1-wing, and the wing is on the left. The T3 disco is 1-wing, but the wings is on the right. The Limited Pro factory disco is 2-wing. Does anyone know why the difference? Could the T3 disco with the wing to the right ever going to work with the Stock 2 2-piece sear (because the factory disco has the wing on the left)?
  10. Trying that too. Q - when I put the T3 in, the sear block won't even sit deep enough for the safety pin holes to fully align. I know there are fitting work you posted fir the wings and angles. Is there also need to remove material from the back of the disco to make it slimmer? I have already polished the areas where sear touches the back of the disco.
  11. I put on the BIC click pen spring and measured the triggers. Surprisingly, no difference for me. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk
  12. As the title says, I am only chasing SA now. I am quite happy with 7 lbs DA. However, coming from consistent 3 lbs APEX trigger, I find 3 lbs 12 oz pretty sucky, given 95% of the shots will be affected. I just want to get the SA to be at least as decent as most polymer guns.

  13. What's the difference between the CZ reduced power FP spring and the Henning plunger spring? Henning is rated 18# I think it is light enough... http://henningshop.com/products/copy-of-tanfoglio-trigger-plunger-springs-h037
  14. Thanks. I am currently using the factory 2-piece sear and spring. Is this the right CZ sear spring to get? https://cajungunworks.com/product/12-sear-spring/ Is this the right 1 piece sear for Tanfo I should get? http://benstoegerproshop.com/eaa-tanfoglio-witness-one-1-piece-sear-9-1/ Thanks again.
  15. I am able to achieve 7 lbs DA and 3 lbs 12 oz SA on my Stock 2. Here are the parts I have put in: 1. Titan hammer 2. Xtreme hammer spring (light) 3. Henning 18 lbs trigger bar plunger spring 4. Xtreme FP spring (light) 5. Woff 9 lbs recoil spring 6. Xtreme firing pin 7. Henning guide rod I have tried CGW reduced power TRS but I found it actually adds 0.5# to DA and did nothing to SA. Everything else is stock, and all contact areas polished to stainless look following the 101 guide by atlas. What did I miss here? Do I need to go crazy on a 4th round polishing? Should I try T3 disco? That should only help pre-travel with no effect on trigger pulls, correct? I am trying to achieve 6 lbs DA and 3 lbs SA, which should not be too difficult based on what others have reported here. The gun runs great 100% ignition with WSP for a few hundred rounds. It's just the trigger... Maybe I should just stop messing with the trigger and just focusing on shooting it?
  16. It's a bit odd I know but swapping the pin is the only change. I put on the CGW floating pin, or used a 1/16 punch in place, SA won't fall. I switch back to factory pin, everything works.The CGW floating pin is much smaller in diameter than the factory, very similar to 1/16 punch. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk
  17. I finally figured out what's wrong. It makes me look stupid, I know. What happened is that I put on the CGW floating trigger pin for easy swapping in/out parts to test the triggers. I have it there all the time... Now I put in the real trigger pin, DA/SA works flawlessly! Thanks for everyone's input and pointers. DIY gunsmithing obviously requires more than just being handy
  18. Move the sight up 4 inches? It's shooting 4 inches low. So I adjusted the rear to hit POA. I was trying to say .140 Dawson front still needs to adjust the rear up.
  19. I got .140 x .90 Dawson on Stock 2. I still have to move the sight up 4 inches @ 25 yards. Shooting 147gr Bayou.
  20. Thanks. I almost bought the Extreme complete sear block to save the struggle and trouble but I have a Limited Pro incoming today so I can take that sear block and put it in this Stock 2 see if it's truly the sear issue. If it's the sear, I probably would go Extreme. BTW - what's the DA/SA pull like if I swap in all Extreme parts, e.g. complete sear block, trigger bar, disconnector, trigger bar plunger, etc. with other parts polished? It may actually be worth the cost if it can do 6lbs DA and 3lbs SA.
  21. I looked at the over travel screw, it is already backed out as much it can, to a point where further backing out would stick the back of that screw out of the trigger surface. Besides, I had the gun working perfect condition Saturday morning. I have not touched over travel screw.
  22. I just took another video. I can make the SA hammer fall, but I need to push down the trigger bar, while holding it down, squeeze the trigger and hold the trigger. Then I slowly let go of the trigger until I hear 1 click, then press trigger and SA hammer would fall. If I wait for the 2nd click while letting go of the trigger (there would be a total of 2 clicks), then SA hammer would still not fall. Is it possible I polished the trigger bar too much where it contacts the sear? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgEgsI9iCEw&feature=youtu.be
  23. Trigger screw - I think CZs have a screw there, but for Tanfos it's just a plunger. I don't think one can insert it too far deep in the hole because the bottom of the hole is frame.
  24. Yes I have the Extreme firing pin safety and spring I did not put on the upper parts for this testing. Is it needed for testing trigger? I will try that.
  25. Here is when SA pull does not move the hammer at all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZhZb--m880
