Stician Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I just got a new Limited Pro 40 late last week. I'm waiting for a Henning XL firing pin, EGD light firing pin and hammer springs, Last Round Armament sear spring, and CGW trigger return and a firing pin spring repurposed for plunger. (Thanks to waktasz for the mod list) I decided to take it apart, learn how it works And polish. And for fun I clipped two coils off oem hammer, plunger and mag release springs. This Limited Pro came with one piece sear. I polished all the contact points and lubed with my favorite SlideGlide. How does the reset look compared to others? Is there room to make the DA take up shorter? How about the little bit of creep in SA and reset? I figure the creep is from lifting the firing pin block. Otherwise at 41 oz this is a 40 minor cheater gun and a stunner to look at. Tanfoglio Limited Pro reset: https://youtu.be/MfmGjgudxak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prov1x Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Looks to be very close to my stock 2 and 3. I think you can fit a cz disco, but not sure it's worth it because at actual shooting speed, you'll never notice it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I plan on fitting my stock 2 and 3's with CGW discos this week, I think it is worth it but agree that I won't notice it when the buzzer goes off. based on how short the SA pull is in this video I think it is worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck s Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 That looks like he has the EG trigger on there. It changes the dynamics a good bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 it is a cgw disco, see this thread http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=194198&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 I was going to ask if we need a T2 or T3 disco but I'm going to check the thread and learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I bought the T3 and that is what Alphaseeker used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Another side question, why did the factory set up Stock II with 2 piece sear and lower profile safety? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selecw Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) What weight is your DA and SA pull now? Edited March 22, 2015 by selecw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 I'm not sure but I will report back when my Lyman gauge shows up. By my fingers I'm going to guess 7.5/3.5. I should have waited for the gauge and did a baseline factory pull but working on it. The main test will be what the combination of 4 new springs will be.

Stician Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Lyman gauge reads 8 lb 1 oz in DA and 4 lb SA. Looking forward to spring kit coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selecw Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) What do you think you can get it down to with the new springs? Edited March 23, 2015 by selecw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertLx Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 My S2 from the factory had 12# DA and 4.5# SA. I installed the light springs, Titan hammer and polished all the contact points. Now it's 6.5/2.5. It has a nice short reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 What do you think you can get it down to with the new springs? I think somewhere around 2.5 lb mark. I know a local GM with a Stock II using same springs but with an added Xtreme hammer and CGW disco getting SA at 2 lbs. I would prefer 2.5 lbs since my limited 2011 gun is 2.5 lbs.

RobertLx Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 If you're using the factory hammer, expect a longer SA trigger pull. The OE hammer has longer hammer hooks compared to the delta or Titan hammers. In turn the sear needs to drag along those longer hooks. You may even get some creep from it. My Titan hammer breaks very crisp from the sear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Robert, I thought the Limited Pro hammer is the delta, then EGD xtreme and titan are options? I believe the Stock III comes with a base hammer. Edited March 23, 2015 by Stician Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertLx Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Oh, it is possible. For some reason I was thinking Stock. Not lim pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stician Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 Lyman gauge reads 8 lb 1 oz in DA and 4 lb SA. Looking forward to spring kit coming in.Dropped in CGW trigger return spring and firing pin spring repurposed for plunger spring. DA is 7 lb 3.5 oz and SA is 3 lb 3.5 oz Last Round Armament dropped the ball. Took them 4 biz days to email about missing Wolff recoil spring and didn't respond again for the past day after offering to ship the other parts separately. Yikes!

selecw Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Is it possible to get down to a 5lb DA and 3lb SA? That's what I have as a goal for my (soon to be delivered) Stock III Right now my SP-01 is at 4lb DA and 3lb SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
