maka73 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Help I was dry firing today and all of a sudden my trigger will not reset. It has alot of free play in it now. I can pull the trigger out manually and reset it but it will not come back out on it's own. What might the problem be. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcantr Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Did the trigger return spring break? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadoFann Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 The trigger spring is broken. It's a common problem. Rapid trigger pull in DA causes the trigger spring to heat up and break. Ask me how I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maka73 Posted July 26, 2014 Author Share Posted July 26, 2014 I am a little ignorant on repairing. Are the trigger return spring and trigger spring the same. I guess I will not be shooting my match tomorrow. I shoot a CZ SP01 Shadowline. Exactly what part will I need to buy. I will order several. I do have back ups of other stuff however trigger springs I do not have. Thanks for your speedy replies. Wg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadoFann Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 They are the same thing. Not easy to replace, not for me anyway. I always sent mine back to CZC. I have two SP-01 Shadow Customs and I broke one on both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Get in touch with Cajun Gun Works and order their trigger-return spring (get a couple spares) and floating trigger pin. You'll need a drift punch and a sharp whack with a hammer to free the staked factory trigger pin. The floating trigger pin comes with a short slave pin that holds the new trigger-return spin in place while you re-assemble the mechanism. You then push the CGW trigger pin in place and the slave pin falls out the opposite side. Hold onto it for future use. I change my trigger-return spin and slide stop every 10k rounds.

alma Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 It's not too bad to replace once you get that trigger pin out. The CGW slave pins make it much easier to put back in. Get one of the CGW solid trigger pins while you are at it and then it will be much easier to get out as well. The CGW reduced power trigger spring is in itself a very nice upgrade as well.

maka73 Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 I tried to order online from CGW but apparently they will not sell to me because I am Canadian. My shipping address is in the US but my Credit Card draws on a Canadian bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always use paypal when ordering from cgw I tried to use paypal as well however it says that the system will not take my CC because I an a crazy Canadian. I thought that was weird because weren't Canadians the first ones to settle in that area around New Orleans. hahahahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
