  1. Ok, thank you! I'll update with what happens!
  2. Ok so check the trigger guard screws, unscrew the stock stud screw as far as possible, then give a little thump/heat to release. Thank you. I'll give this a try.
  3. My dad gave me his old Winchester 72A this week and I want to take it apart and clean/preserve the metal. I thought this would be a welcome and easy break from working on CZs. However, I can't figure out how to remove the wood stock. The screw on the bottom of the stock that appears to be what would free the gun up gets to a certain point then just stops. I am curious if anyone has worked on these guns and can tell me if there is a trick to it or if my dad neglected it so long that it is just a bit stuck and needs some encouragement. He bought this gun in 1960 for $15 and it was the first gun I ever shot as a kid.
  4. So you had just the adjustable trigger, not the short reset, and you had the same issue? Did you ever resolve the issue?
  5. I have this P226 that I put the GG SRS system on. The slide wouldn't close on it so they sent me a special safety lever that they send to people when the slide won't close on their normal safety lever. I took it to the range and fired it successfully a few times, then less, and less, and less until it just was all light strikes. I took it apart at home and noticed a slight peen where the safety plunger catches the firing pin (see picture). Wondering if this special safety lever is not pushing the plunger up high enough to clear the firing pin? Has anybody else experienced an issue like this with this special safety lever? Merry Christmas, Happy New Year. Thanks. -Mel
  6. He changed his website around a bit so the old link goes to a missing page. Just go to the main page now and it's there: http://dsperman.com/
  7. Ok Mr SouperMan, if you are ever in San Diego I owe you a bowl of soup because I'll be damned if you weren't spot on. After trying the reduced power TRS and immediately feeling it was soggy, my factory TRS is back on and that trigger feels much better! Anybody want a free reduced power TRS? LOL.
  8. Thank you, sir. I'm curious how low people go and can still fire any kind of round. I'm at 15# now. I've heard 13# is still doable.
  9. Good morning from sunny San Diego. Anybody know the factory hammer spring weight on a 97B? I'm interested in how far away from baseline I'm moving as I go lighter. Thank you! (If you have thoughts on your experiences going lighter on this gun, please feel free to share that too.)
  10. I read in a book somewhere something about only ever buying equipment that will help you shoot better, not anything that you think will make the gun shoot better. I might be butchering that but you get the point. And hell yes gold plating helps me shoot better
  11. I can imagine how a lighter TRS weight would lead to the trigger feeling not as crisp, especially on the return now that I'm picturing it. Now I'm eager to try for myself, thank you!
  12. I tend to dry fire any time these zoom meetings get boring. Turn the camera off, aim at my little orange sticker on the wall, and click away. This happens a lot. Dang now I'm real curious to see how this CGW TRS is going to feel.
  13. Less than a year for the factory CZ or the CGW? I just ordered the CGW one last night. Believe they said theirs are supposed to last longer.
  14. This thread was awesome and really helped with some great ideas for polishing. I made an account just to say thanks. My kids loooooved hearing me curse and bang away at the hammer pins. I'm curious as I've only worked on Sigs and Glocks for the most part before buying a 97B; are CZ's typically a little more advanced to work on? Also, how greasy do you guys like your inside parts to be? I've heard everything from heart attack diet fried chicken & ribs greasy to vegan salad with minimal dressing light film greasy and I'm curious what other people who shoot these particular guns say.
