billdozer Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I put a Cajun gun works trigger pin in my ts, it didn't come with instructions, so I just put it in. But it walks out now. Did I miss something or am I just supposed to peen the edge of the hole to retain it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eerw Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Does not really work well on the TS .It doesn't retain the same way it does on the 75/SP01 series guns where the spring puts tension on the pin to keep it from moving.

billdozer Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Duly noted....looks like I might chuck it up in the lathe and tap it, something like up trigger pins on an ar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmeky Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Billdozer, Pin is not recommended for a TS. Designed for CZ's that use a .086" OD trigger pin. Nearing 2K trigger pins and have never had one back out. Cajun Gun Works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellM Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Are the trigger pins production legal in the shadow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpa5oh Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 And what's the benefit of this? I didn't see any benefits mentioned on the cajun gun works site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motosapiens Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 it should be production legal. it doesn't change the external appearance any (or offer any performance advantage). the benefit is that it makes it a LOT easier to change out a trigger return spring. I haven't broken one, but some people report they (along with slide stops) are a fatigue-item that may fail after tens of thousands of rounds, so some folks just replace them every year. the stock trigger pin is staked in place, and is a bizatch to get out, and then a bizatch to get back in, and then if you don't stake it again, it may (will?) fall out at an inconvenient time.

billdozer Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 Thanks schmeky. It fits just fine...just won't stay in place for shit. How hard is the material they are made of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I currently have the CGW trigger pin because I broke the original trigger return spring after a month or 2 of dryfire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmeky Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Billdozer, My trigger pin relies on the trigger return spring to keep the pin in place. The TS, IIRC, has a different trigger return spring. To answer your question, the first trigger pins were made from 1214SS and heat treated. The newest trigger pins are made from 0-1 tool steel and subsequently heat treated; they are 3X stronger than the 1214SS pins. The ends of the newer 0-1 tool steel trigger pins are radiused, whereas the 1214SS pins had a .005" bevel; the radiused pins are easier to install. If you are having problems, please contact me personally by calling me at 318-372-9050, or using my e-mail: cajungunworks@gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee G Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 David's trigger pin is a god send. I have installed a few inShadows here and never had any issues. I wish CZC would make his pin a standard component. It's much more economical than the $10 CZ pin that gets destroyed when you bang it out to replace a broken TRS. It's also great for those of us that detail strip our pistols. I was shooting a steel match in Tangi a few months ago when I broke my TRS after about 10k rounds and twice as much dry fire. Made swapping springs a very quick and painless job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
