Nealio Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 You should do the fitting on the sear so if you decide to switch hammers or sears later then you can fit the new sear to your gun. If the cam on the safety is fit then your gun could fire on safe if a different sear is installed and the sear has a thinner or shorter leg. For example if you fit the cam on the safety for an EGW sear on a Xtreme hammer (that is the worst combo for this), then going back to a stock hammer and sear would probably make your safety useless, then you have to buy a $130 safety..

waktasz Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Makes sense, and you're right! I tried to trade my Stock 2 extended safety for a custom safety and it did not work in the other gun. I guess I'm stuck now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBaron Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Mainly because sear is cheap. Safety is not. It's meant that the fitting is done to the sear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I just fitted 4 of these, 2 on stock 2's and 2 on stock 3's, the only thing I had to do was open up the pin hole and take a small amount off the leg, see attached pic. I highly recommend doing this, it makes quite a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam B Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) I fit #3, the lack of take up is amazing, better than my CZ with the SRT Edited March 27, 2015 by Adam B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you find an easier method of widening the hole for the Tanfo hammer pin? Edited March 27, 2015 by himurax13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetorian97 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 AdamB any recommendations on how you removed the metal? Can you Mic the thickness so we know what ball park to be in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I used these bits to open the hole http://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=7144 http://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=9910 I gently used one of these bits on very low rpm http://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=953 put it in and tested it, pulled it out and repeated the process, when I got close I switched to this bit http://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?pid=461 same thing, reinstalled it, tested it and then done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaSeeker Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Glad you like it. I used the diamond files from Harbor freight - wish I knew about the Dremel diamond bit. Did you have to dress the bit for the required diameter or did it come undersized already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 the bit was real close the the correct size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himurax13 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Crap, I won't be able to order those for tonight. I guess we should bother Dave to make more Tanfo/Canik parts, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend doing this, it makes quite a difference. You also have to take some of the front face of that arm that sticks out the side or the trigger won't ever release in DA mode. My second stock 2 came with it that way and I wanted them to match but I screwed up a couple of these fitting them and gave up! ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the same reason why he doesn't advertise that a Type 1 Disco will drop right into a Canik Stingray/P-120.

AlphaSeeker Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 I fired the type 3 into the stock 2 with Titan hammer and one pice sear. Pre-travel dropped by 50%. You do not need to reduce the face of the "wing". Just remove about 0.01 from to bottom, to thin the wing. Also break the sharp lower edge of the wing face. I also installed same disco into Stock 3 with OEM sear - same improvement in all honesty, the 13lb hammer spring, new disco, extended firing pin and polished internals make the hammer unneccessary. Will try an even lighter hammer spring to get the Titan to do its job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waktasz Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Weird. Mine didn't work that way. I had to take a lot off to get the hammer to fall, then I ended up taking too much and now the hammer doesn't travel back far enough before it trips. Oops.Maybe I'll try again.
