Fireant Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I just put an SV trigger bow in my Trojan and while dry firing the gun the trigger sometime sticks in the frame. What can I do to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Cheely Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 If there are rub marks you can see, file a little away so that it won't hit anymore. All you can do is try to figure out where it is hitting, either with the trigger itself, or the trigger bow in the frame. Not much else to suggest from my chair here.

Fireant Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 Thanks Matt, I wasn't sure if there were places that they tend to stick or not. I've swapped out several triggers and never had that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Cheely Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I suppose with skinny SVI triggers the trigger shoe & insert are usually the culprit. Too tall and too wide, or too square compared to the cut in the frame. Stick the trigger in backwards to check the bow real quick. After that see if there is any up & down or right to left play and narrow down where it has to be sticking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket35 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I am pretty sure it was the trigger shoe and insert that were giving Chris the trouble too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L9X25 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I am pretty sure it was the trigger shoe and insert that were giving Chris the trouble too. The "shoe" is usually the problem since they are usually a little oversized so that they can be fit into practically any frame. Some work fine after the corners are polished while others require a significant amount to be removed from the top and bottom. That is likely the most inconsistent dimension on a 1911 style frame.

scribble Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 take and use a blue sharpie and mark all sides of the trigger shoe and bow. Dryfire about 20-30 times to work in. Take apart and see were it is rubbed off then smooth that area down to get it to not rub. Repeat if needed to eliminate all rubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
