waktasz Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Whichever size/shape and color combination you prefer is best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootmove Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) I have been super impressed with the X-Line Vario in the Atlas Chaos. Trigger sizing is kind of an art, and depends on how much trigger finger you want to apply. My personal preference (even though I have long fingers) is for a short, flat trigger so that I have the option to give a lot of trigger finger (e.g. second knuckle). If I had gone with a curved trigger, medium might have been better. The X-line Vario has a nice over-travel stop as well. I like to adjust over-travel to near zero.

Gomar83 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 On the X-line trigger is the bow it self strong and ridged, or does it flex a little like some of the SV’s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, can't say because I've never removed the bow and don't have experience with the SV bows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gomar83 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 So what are the major advantages with the X-line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cconnection Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I'm an SV trigger guy. With three different length and shape inserts how can you go wrong. Trigger bow flex??? Really, what kind of trigger pull weight would one have to have to flex a bow?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbullet Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 question please on the X line triggers. I have a DVC and was changing over the trigger to the x-line and thought I would do that without changing any other part. Fitted the trigger into the plastic grip and installed. To my dismay the bow is either angled incorrectly or too short as when I depress the trigger, even with the overtravel stop adjusted loosely so that it does not get in the way, the gun would not fire. It is not able to reach long enough to activate the sear I think. I give it 3 times strong pull on the trigger and the it finally drops the hammer to the half cock notch only...and I tell myself what the ....... is going on. Repeated the whole thing and same thing always happens. Put back the old trigger and it works like a charm with no hitches. So, these x-line triggers appear to be - non drop in - in a way that the bow does not appear to be correctly angled.... Sorry but am I missing anything here ?

Are you sure that the rear of the bow isn’t contacting the gip safety tab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw the trigger out on the threaded stud, this will allow the bow to contact the sear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw your reply - it was Aha! your right.... I will do that - I did have it screwed all the way in and the trigger shoe is hitting the mag release button even before the bow could get to the sear. Thanks.

Tubadude Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I've only got the X Line in my Atlas and a Wilson in my cobbled together 1911, but I really, really, really like the X Line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks interesting - So you just used a dremel I suppose. Did it take long - is this hardened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anbrumm Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 SV bows have always seemed like the popular choice. X-Line seems to have been making a big appearance over the past year or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
