swapping for 92D spring

[sfort]

I'm thinking about doing a trigger job on my 92FS and was wondering about the 92D spring? does it make a difference in the pull/feel? Or should I get a complete kit? Also, who makes the best kit/parts?

The "D" spring is the best 5 minute change you can make.

Dave (Olhasso) can suggest further changes... if wanted.

The D spring is a great start

you can polish different fire control parts too. I personally think the metal triggers that are available (If you dont have one) reduce a very small amount of ngative flex in the trigger pull.

also a lighter Elite II hammer or a 92D bobbed hammer help your trigger pull as little.

eventually the hammer spring will tak a set and you will notice a reduction in stacking on our DA trigger pull.

I would recommend you polish your own sear, hammer, and trigger before you buy a kit, I dont think its any better than a little polish and lots of dry firing

How hard is the polishing and is there a how-to guide for it?

Years ago the quick fix was to use a light weight 1911 hammer spring. But parts are probably easier to get now with all the M9's out there.

For competition use, the D spring is still heavier than necessary. I use a 15lb 1911 spring. You can go even lighter and cut those springs down a coil or two (worked for me for thousands of rounds w/ Fed primers). Just for my own preference I went back to a full-length 15lb 1911 spring, but it's still lighter than the D spring.

I agree on the metal trigger. The plastic one is not bad, but after a good trigger job you can notice the flex.

I kept all factory fire control parts in my EII. Just polished things up really well, cut the hammer hooks back to ~0.020, and put a small secondary angle on the sear. With the cut-down 1911 spring and some good polishing, the DA trigger could compete w/ most well worked over revolvers.

If I change out the hammer, springs, and put in a meatl trigger, will I be able to use it in production class? I'm hoping to start shooting some matches in the spring.

Here is comparison between stock, "D" spring, and Olhasso comp spring.

Statistics of three springs:

92FS--Trigger pull factory spring = DA 11.8lb

SA = 5.55lb

Trigger pull with "D" spring DA = 8.10lb

SA = 4.00lb

Trigger pull with "Comp" spring DA =8.0

SA = 3.8
