Whats the blue and silver in the first picture??

leeindy · 03-20-2007, 12:09 AM

silver is the set screw and the blue is lock tite

Maybe I'm looking at this wrong.

An "overtravel" screw prevents needless rearward motion of the trigger after the sear has been released. An overtravel screw excessively tightened can prevent the trigger from releasing the sear.

This appears to be a "excess takeup limiter". As I see it, it prevents the trigger/trigger bow from moving forward excessively past the reset point. The danger here is that a poorly adjusted screw would prevent the trigger from resetting.

Did I get it wrong?

As the trigger itself is pulled rearward, the trigger bar moves forward. So yes, you had it backwards

Your looking at it wrong, when the trigger is pulled rearward the bend in the trigger bar that makes contact with the screw moves forward. The screw limits overtravel, or rearward trigger movement.

i bet you will get light strikes. whenever you cannot adjust the screw and there is too much overtravel taken off the disconnector does not disengage the striker safety.

We thought about that when we made the sear. That is why the travel is longer than on our custom jobs.
