TannerB Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I can't figure out how to get it off, Whats the trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoMiE Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) When taking out the trigger pin, wiggle the slide stop. There is a little notch and the slide stop usuallye catches and stops the pin from being knocked out.

TannerB Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 Right, I can take the whole trigger out, Im talking about actually taking off the trigger off the trigger bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoMiE Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 you can't without drilling out the pin that connects the trigger bar to the shoe, then i guess its a pita to put it back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I asked this question to Charlie Vanek, and he suggested the following, which worked with great success: Take a punch just a little smaller than the pin in the trigger, and punch that pin on the side that you can see the pin until you can see an outline of said pin on the other side of the trigger. Then, with the smallest punch you have, drive that pin out using the center of the indentation that you made as your reference point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TannerB Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 Cool, What about putting it back on? you couldn't use the same pin could you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEC Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Cool, What about putting it back on? you couldn't use the same pin could you? You could use the same pin. One trick that some people are doing is placing the pin in a different location on the shoe to change the trigger further, but you need to know that once this is done, it will be considered a external modification.

Then, with the smallest punch you have, drive that pin out using the center of the indentation that you made as your reference point. When I had located the end of the "bulge", I used the tip of an X-acto blade and sort of "spun and dug" to get down to the head of the steel pin so I knew where it was exactly. Then, I sort of worked the hole out until the head of the pin was exposed enough to use the small punch. Then, I laid the trigger over a wood fixture with a hole in it (to allow the pin to drop into) and tapped it out . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bent that one tab forward, and I don't understand where I should put the trigger at? Do you mean where to relocate the trigger pin hole? That's covered in the thread here about the Glock trigger job. You move it a little up and back, and shorten the top of the trigger bar accordingly. http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=52311 Edited January 9, 2008 by bountyhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the duck of death Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Unless you want to go under a 2lb pull don't bother moving the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TannerB Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Unless you want to go under a 2lb pull don't bother moving the hole. Oh well if thats the case I'll leave it where its at, and modify the trigger safety to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
