Graham Brammall Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I'm Currently installing the flat trigger system along with EGW hammer & sear and Hennings pin kit. I'm managing to get through most of it ok, thanks to a lot of tips from everyone on this forum, however I seem to be hanging up occasionaly on the hammer half cock, does it usually require attention? if so what and where, probably a dumb question but is the half cock required at all or could it be removed. Thanks for any help and a big thanks to everyone posting tips on the flat trigger thread, they have been a huge help. Cheers, Graham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Some people (like me) have ground down the half-cock notch. I still have the regular trigger and occasionally the hammer would catch on the sear. Check the over-travel adjustment to see if that solves the problem first.

J-Ho Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Most of us Americans tend to go off half cocked anyway, so why bother with the notch on the hammer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinnsyk Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Unfortunately it seems to be necessary to remove the half-cock on 'most?' of the trigger jobs. I've done a few where everything seems to work fine without having to do so, but on mine I've removed them completely. As long as you hammer & sear doesn't follower it will be fine. Almost after a trigger job, only load your mag with one or two rounds to make sure it doesn't go full-auto on you.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Brammall Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks for the help guys, I'll try taking it off in small stages and see how I go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
