Higgins Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I spent several hours polishing the trigger parts on my E2 but the trigger pull is still long and heavy. Anyone have any suggestions that do not involve sending the gun away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stony Lane Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 13# hammer spring: (Get some extras, if you get a light hit put a new one in. Your E2 probably already has a 16#.) http://www.gunsprings.com/Semi-Auto%20Pistols/BERETTA/92,%2096,%20AND%20CENTURION/cID1/mID2/dID36#63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stony Lane Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I have not tried the Wolff INS trigger spring, many don't seem to like it. Some have polished the lighter one and seem to like it. You might try this (from the Beretta forum): Sear Spring- "I opened it up about 30 degrees, IE, with the long part of the spring at 9 o'clock so to speak, the short end was at about the "3:30" position--just pointing down a bit. Used 2 vice grips to grasp the spring until it was straight across- Dropped the pull from @ 4 lb to 3lb 5oz. Went back for more and bent it until is was JUST pointing up--about the "2:30" position so to speak. I also polished the sear pin and lightly buffed the sear this time." I did this to the sear spring on my practice gun (seemed to lighten a bit), but not my match gun. Both have LLT trigger jobs from "long" ago. There are other tips and ideas on the Beretta forum... (BerettaForum.net) One guy sent his internal parts to Josh at Allegheny Gun Works for a trigger job (didn't send the gun - no FFL transfer needed): http://alleghenygunworks.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgins Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 Thanks again! That may be the best option. (Sending parts to josh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvb Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 (edited) For DA trigger improvement: 15lb 1911 mainspring with Fed primers. polish the snot out of the top of the hammer strut, make it shine; this is where a lot of the roughness comes from. polish the DA hammer hook and DA sear on the trigger bar. light polish on pins and sides of hammer/trigger helps a little, but not a lot. use a good grease like TW-25 For SA, polish sear face w/ good flat ceramic stone and add a -small- secondary angle (as you would a 1911) cut the hammer hooks to ~0.020 My 92 was approx 7lb and butter smooth DA and right at a crisp 3lb SA with this set up. All other springs / safties left in tact (no in-precise monkeying w/ the sear spring). Lasted 10s of thousands of rounds (still going when I switched to glock). I had the SA at ~2.5lb by cutting a couple coils of the 15lb 1911 mainspring, but locktime was horrible. -rvb Edited April 1, 2013 by rvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRock Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Post #2 here shows areas to polish on the hammer and sear. http://www.berettaforum.net/vb/showthread.php?t=73869 I have seen pictures of work done by Allegheny Gun Works, not to mention great reviews on the Beretta Forum, so I'd certainly trust their work if you don't want to try this yourself.

GreenDragon64 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I had a buddy apply some Frog Lube to the heated internals in one of his guns and have the trigger pull tested both before and after the application. It reduced the pull a little over a quarter of a pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcg Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I've gone to d-springs on both my 92 and 96 guns. Dropped the DA pull by a good 4-5 lbs. HIGHLY recommended, and inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbebeau Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) Don't have any of the internals. They are due for a full cleaning so maybe when that happens, but for now... Edited September 22, 2014 by rbebeau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
