I have a RRA lower that I put the JP Enterprise spring set to lower my trigger weight. I was using the lower on just a .223, but I now own a RRA 6.8 upper. When I went to the range, some of the rounds did not fire after being struck by the hammer.
I believe that the JP spring is too weak and is causing the problem. It is safe to just put the stock hammer spring in the trigger group and leave the rest of the JP kit in the group?
I placed the original hammer spring back into the trigger assembly. It
seems like it makes the trigger a little heavier. It is still way lighter than with all the stock springs,
but it is heavier than the trigger with all the JP springs. Makes it middle of the road.
I have not been to the range to test it. I just want to make shure that it is safe with the stock hammer spring and the JP trigger spring. The gun will be used by my 7 year old this year on his first annual deer hunt in Texas. I will be with him on all his hunts, but I was just worried about the safty.
just as a precaution, do several function tests, make sure your sear is re-engaging properly…but you should be fine.
Unless his son is going hunting with a FA rifle, there shouldn’t be a sear anywhere nearby.
i didn’t mean a RDIAS, i meant the sear surfaces of the “disconnecter”/secondary sear…i’m guessing his rifle has that
should always do a bunch of function checks when messing with the FCG, was just trying to be helpful, not give misleading information.
I have tried function test by removing the upper and locking the hammer back. I would tap the gun on the sides, front, rear and it never “fired.” It seems to be working properly. I will be going to the range this week to try it out with some rounds.
Edit-- Never mind.
