Trigger Job On the Fish

[Phaelon Veritas]

Well I did the trigger job on my fish last night it worked very well I was Impressed with the way it turned out now my piranha goes just beyond sear release and returns... the feeling of accomplishment from something so small can feel so rewarding yeh know?

how do you do a trigger job to your fishy

[Phaelon Veritas]

all you do is take your trigger frame off and then take out the pin which holds your trigger in place and then when you see the spring which sits under the nose of the trigger itself (the spring in the forward most part of the frame... pointing up and down ownly 1/2-3/4 in length ) take that spring out and place an object such as a wooden dowel or possibly a metal rod inside the spring so it fits snug but not tight... the spring should still move freely or you can do as I did and use solder and melt solder into the lower half of the spring at any rate what you are doing no matter what method you use all you are doing is stopping the spring from traveling further than it needs to so if you fill half of your spring and reduce its travel the sear will have enough travel to release the striker but will not go far beyond that for a faster trigger return and higher fire rate caused by the less wasted trigger travel. the spring should be about half way filled with wooden dowel solder or metal plastic whatever you choose to use. make sure you can modify the length of this item in some way it may take some trial and error to get the length right.... once you have the length right test it out by putting it back together the trigger should stop right after releasing the sear and STOP it should no travel back to the frame or you need to make you spring filler and thats it :) pretty simple and it works awful sweet :)
************ NOTE: when taking the trigger pin out push it from the safety side out the opposing side the pin has rideges on it which may damage you trigger if pulled out the opposing side... and uncock the gun before you attempt this... It's not hard the worst part is getting the pin out I used asmall nail and a small hammer and it comes right out! And if you mess yur gun up it's not my fault ;)
