Hmm... I'm assuming it fits all models? 9/40 and 45ACP? I might have to try one or two of them.
Time to try drilling and tapping a few trigger bars I guess. What size screw does everyone use? Damn. I wish Tony lived closer. One of these levers, a (self) drilled/tapped trigger bar and a $20 spring kit would be a pretty sweet, and extremely cheap home-made trigger job. |

I use a #4-40 set screw, the drill size is a #43. some people use a 3MM screw. I think that it's a little big.
I will drill your trigger bar and install a screw for $15.00+sh on the 9mm and 40cal's, I like to put the screw in the frame and offer this service for $25.00+sh

Are the two kits compatable? Yes and No Yes you can use the Springer trigger bar with this part. No you can't use the Springer sear.

That's what I've used also. I've done 3 trigger bars and all 3 where a bear to drill. That metal is really hard.

Drilling the trigger bar was a PAIN IN THE ASS!!! Tapping was a piece of cake that literally took minutes. I used a 4-40 screw and they can be had for pennies at a hardware store.
I used a cordless drill, not a press, and it sucked. If you're going to do it, make sure you use drilling/cutting oil. Trust me, it will take some time to get through the trigger bar.
