Infinity trigger by strayer voight

[Law Dawg]

I would like to put one of these triggers on my open gun, but I'm not sure if it will be worth it. Has anyone had a positive experience with this trigger. negative comments aloso accepted.

[lynn jones]

are you talking about the tri-glide system?

if so, i say do it. i use the system in all my guns.  i also put a doug keoing hammer in the gun to make an outstanding trigger pull.

dvc ya,

Yes, it is the tri glide and I also have a friend that has the same combo you do, with the tri glide trigger and the Doug Koenig hammer.She says that the hammer trigger combo has actually helped her trigger control due to the light hammer. I guess that I just want some reasurance that I just wont be throwing my money away, but all I've heard is positive feed back, so I might jump into it.

i think you will enjoy the difference..

Hello all,

I strongly advocate the SV Tri-Glide trigger system.  I use them in any gun that will take them.  The interchangeable faces are very useful as they really allow you to "fit" the gun to your hand.  On my SV Limited guns I use the straight face, on the STI open gun I use the Enos face - subtle differences to be sure.

The only note I would advise is the use of a high quality trigger prep on the bearing surfaces.  For lack of a better alternative and insufficient knowledge I use the STI Trigger Slick product.  Use of a ball bearing fitted TriGlide  without this or similar product will over time create wear on the opposing parts.  The gentleman who worked on my guns in the past preferred to use BreakFree, but I did not find it suitable with the TriGlide.  Perhaps one of the more knowledgeable contributors could recommend alternatives to Trigger Slick if necessary.

Also if you elect to fit the trigger system yourself, be sure that the bow does not bind in the track, and that the shoe itself slides cleanly.  Some of the trigger sets require fitting to move easily.

Lynn, would you elaborate a bit more on the Koenig hammer?  Why do you prefer it?  I use SV products today, but have spoken to others who advocate the Cylinder and Slide warp speed kit.

Thanks,

Ross

hey ross,

the reason i like the keoing hammer is that it takes no modification, just dop it in the gun.  it  is skeltionized, ( reduced mass ) made of stainless steel.  the reduced mass make the trigger pull feel lighter.  although the hammer is expensive, i like it.  i don't hawk any thing that doesn't work for me.

good luck.

Lynn,

Thanks a lot, I will look into the Koenig hammer

Cheers,

I'm the same as well - the reason I sell the SVI hammer and trigger and sear on be.com is because it's great stuff. And the two (the sear face and hammer hook) are engineered to work perfectly together.

Brian do you sell the SVI trigger I can not find it or where would be a good place to get it

     Thanks

[Shooter Grrl]

Brian,

Do you sell (or will you?) the Koenig hammer?  If not, anybody know where I can find one?

[Mo Zee]

Does this system only work in S_V guns or do they work on other 1911 clones ie caspians etc.

Thanx

[Loves2Shoot]

They make a model for a SS.

[benos]

Kath,

I should sell it because it is a great product. But I'm not at the moment. I'm gonna give Doug buddie a call right now...

[Jon Merricks]

Kath,  Dawson sells them and I think Brownells sells them too.  

OK EGW

Add EGW to the list.....

[Shooter Grrl]

Holy cow - that hammer is DAMNED expensive!  Anybody care to get technical on why I should spend that much for a damned hammer?

Then ya add in the new trigger system and face - aiyaaaaa.  

But on the plus side - the blaster is getting fixed for Valentine's Day.  I'm such a romantic ;0

Lighter hammer, faster lock time... at least that's the theory. I haven't had any experience with it, but it makes sense to me.

Shooter grrl,

I didn't get Doug yet - what's his hammer selling for?

[Shooter Grrl]

BE,

Doug's hammer is $85 at "retail" places and $75 on Doug's site.

I'm seriously looking at getting the set here on be.com

[diehli]

Wow, pretty spiffy, BE. I got those weights from Brownell's catalog. Any idea what the other SV hammers weigh (the standard one is what I'm most curious about)?

[diehli]

Oh yeah, FYI Brownell's with the gunsmith discount is $64 for Doug's hammer.
