MHitchcock Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Thoughts on who does the best trigger job for a stock ii (xtreme) without massive turn around times. Or parts for DIY looking for 100% CCI primer reliability (although I suppose I could change over to federal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goshimu Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I'd be interested to know what people say. Mine is still pretty much new at around 1200rds but has improved dramatically, the trigger feels great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHitchcock Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 I have a little over 3k through mine. Have dry-fired a few accushadows at local USPSA would like to get da/sa similar. The DA pull is noticeably heavier on mine single is probably 1lb heavier SA (going off feel). I wouldn't trade my stock ii for a shadow though. Hands are way too big. Stock ii is just about right and the shadow feels too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubadds Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I just bought a stock 3 from Jim Bodkin; "jdsales" Finished the gun in about a week Lights off CCI fine; now someone will chime in and turn it into a "mine is better than yours" debate But I can't say how nice and easy the transaction was.... Very happy with the gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbu Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Bodkin has a great reputation. I prefer DIY. Changing to an Extreme light Firing pin spring / hammer spring combination will limit you to federal (unless you also get extreme firing pin, hammer (delta or titan). Just dropping in Wolff 14# hammer spring, EG light firing pin spring or EG medium/medium springs will give reliable ignition with a lighter trigger. Getting Henning light plunger spring, CZ reduced power trigger spring and a CZ sear spring will drop the force too with no negative impact on ignition. A LOT of polishing is needed, pictures and how to are here. KneelingAtlas has a great thread on it. You can get crazy good triggers in the Stock 2, if you put in the extra parts and fit them, then polish everything up shiny. I have a 1# 14oz SA and 5# 9oz DA with no stacking and I practice with S&B primers (but compete with federal). But... changed all the springs, firing pin, sear, hammer, interruptor and polished polished polished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHitchcock Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 My stock ii is an xtreme. So do I just need springs and polishing then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbu Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 My stock ii is an xtreme. So do I just need springs and polishing then? I would start there. Not sure what the innerds are compared to a normal one. Polishing always helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHitchcock Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 My stock ii is an xtreme. So do I just need springs and polishing then? Sell it, buy a non-extreame, polish, swap couple springs, and hope you recoup some of the money you lost buying an over-rated version of a tanfoglio. The difference in price was less than the sum of parts when I purchased it. Thanks for your input though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
