dave33 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Headed out to the range for a practice session with the 320 X5 yesterday but unfortunately it was cut rather short. Probably less than 30 rounds in the trigger went totally dead. Field stripped it, everything looked ok, pulled out the FCU and there was the trigger return spring just dangling in the wind. Didn't see that coming. I've had the kit for a little less than a year, have Im sure several thousand trouble free rounds through it, never occurred to me the spring would just snap like that. I know its a thinner diameter than stock but I would have thought it would of lasted longer. Didn't have the stock spring with me so was done for the day with that gun, ended up salvaging the trip shooting my 365 and old standby XDM. Got through to Gray Guns this afternoon, no way to buy replacement springs on the website but they are sending me one no charge. I guess the moral to this story is if you have this kit in your Sig keep an eye on the trigger return spring and keep your stock one with you as a back up. Just glad this didn't happen at a match.

Doublehelix Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Thanks for the great reminder that these types of things can and do happen, and usually at the worst times. Good thing for you it was not at a match. I lost a P226 sear spring at a steel match several years ago. Frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiblaster Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 How much difference in trigger pull weight does that spring make vs stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vizorn Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 About a pound in my guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave33 Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 It does add some weight. Not sure its a pound more like Vizorn experienced in his gun, but a little more. Don’t have a trigger gage to be able to measure it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stiblaster Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 It sounds like a fairly significant improvement. It might be worth having a spare if they would sell you one in case you break another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
