highhope Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) I have a Stock 2 with all polished and fitted extreme parts , one piece sear, extended firing pin block, T3 disco and reduced power trigger reset spring, bic pen spring. Now the DA is 5lb 5oz, SA 2lb 3oz, which is very nice, but the only problem is the SA reset is not positive. Sometimes the trigger will not reset before my next pull, usually happen when I double tap or drill. I use "reset riding" trigger control and keep my finger in contact with the trigger at all times, so that's may be the reason for not reset. I tried a heavier trigger reset spring, that will temporarily solve this problem but make DA 6lb, SA 3lb, but lighter trigger is better. I heard there is a way to polish the T3 dicso to get the positive reset, anyone knows how to do that? Or is there any other method to solve this problem? Thanks a lot.

You need to fit the disco, there are several older threads on here that discuss in detail what areas to hit. You havent changed out the trigger bar plunger spring have you?

bigbob21 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 It's been said in the past that replacing the trigger plunger spring with a pen spring = "goodluck no warranty" type of responses from everyone... those type of springs are not reliable.Most people eventually moved to the henning trigger plunger springs...Thought heard I heard PD doesn't recommend them with bolo... i think I have the "18#" spring in mine and works fine with solid reset.

MemphisMechanic Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Put the factory plunger spring back in, and you'll love the way the trigger resets. DA and SA weights will feel pretty much the same, too. Edited December 29, 2016 by MemphisMechanic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billthemarine2862 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Before I had a BOLO I used the bic spring for a bit. It lightened up the trigger pull but, made the reset garbage. I went with the Henning 18# spring for a bit as well. That provided decent results when not running the BOLO but the reset is still rather weak and it also adds some unnecessary pre-travel in my opinion. Honestly if you want a positive reset the factory spring is the way to go. Until someone decides to create a optimized version *cough Patriot Defense cough* Chase the trigger pull in other places and try the factory spring for a bit.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk Newb to tanfos but wouldn't it be the second to smallest (out of 4) coil spring in the gun? Obviously it's not the recoil. Hammer should be obvious too(I'd think). Then you just have to distinguish between mag release and plunger. I've only had my gun apart once so maybe I'm missing something?

Bapple Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I would think the spring that comes with the Xtreme plunger is the same as a stock plunger. I could be wrong but that is what I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MemphisMechanic Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) Your post made it sound like you did. I can't help - if I had a spare plunger spring I'd shoot a photo for you, but I don't have time to tear the gun down to snap a photo of one spring. Compare a photo of the extreme spring off BSPS or a similar website to your inventory of springs?

waktasz Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 The stock ones look much different from the CGW FP springs. That should work too but I know PD doesn't recommend them. Anything is better than a bic spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbu Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Measure the wire diameter. thicker wire = stiffer spring. Longer will also be better. used, the plunger spring could be snipped short. A whole new plunger assembly is cheap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highhope Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Thank you all, guys! I changed back to OEM plunger spring, now the reset is great! Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
