vgdvc Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 From what I understand the Hipertouch trigger design puts a significant amount more energy on to the hammer pin than a traditional design, especially with the heaviest toggle springs. Since Hiperfire advises against anti rotational pins,and stock pins do rotate,has anyone experienced elongated/ widened hammer pin holes in their receiver after extensive use with a Hipertouch?

2alphas Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I have many thousands of rounds thru receivers servicing .22LR, 5.56, 9mm & .308 calibers while utilizing Hiperfire trigger groups with no issues or damage of any kind. Always using the heavier springs for the lighter pull. I began using them just after the company was releasing product. My experience ........but also that of several of my very active shooter buds.

Patrick Scott Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 If you do a little digging around on the net you'll see that pin hole damage to 9mm AR lowers was a thing way before HF triggers. Its the bolt speed whacking the hammer that in turn translates to extra force on the pins. Link to comment

I didn't know if the additional force added by the Hipertouch system moving the hammer forward would also contribute to the enlarging hammer pin hole condition. Link to comment
vgdvc Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 If this is a concern I guess that's one benefit of having an enclosed housing trigger system such as a Timney since the factory pins are there to keep the unit in place and the hammer rotates on it's on hollowed pin. Link to comment
