Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

This way you can use any other trigger basically.

Cause the MRS kind of require heavy spring, harder hitting triggers.

I've gotten by for a while running a trigger off my SIG MCX, a two stage that works pretty well in the damn thing.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

But I was like, man, I just want to be able to play around with different stuff.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

I tried using a Q trigger I have, and it's been no go with these firing pins.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)

So tonight was like, okay, well, let's try these different firing pins with the super safety.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)

And the key difference, this is a, I think it's like atrius super safety and

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

Theirs works completely off a mil-spec trigger where a lot of the super safeties, they become a push button for the AR.

And on your trigger, on the bottom of your trigger, where it's like a U-shape, you have to shave the one angle down for the super safety to slide back and forth.

Well, this thing, you use any mil-spec trigger for it.

And cool enough was it ran great with the HK upper and an aftermarket firing pin.

Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

And that's something I've just been tinkering with for, I don't know, man, I feel like,

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

half a year at this point and it was just cool to now get everything working a little bit better on some other firing pins that is how you learn by experimenting right yeah and it's just sometimes like you take the tools out you want to try and mess with something and nothing works and you're just like this is deflating this is annoying and then I don't know something kicks and hits different you're like let's try this again let's change the variable up a little bit it was like oh shit this thing ran great oh yeah

On top of that, I was using a standard buffer in spring in this lower here, whereas HK sends you a buffer in spring with their uppers.

And so I didn't even change that shit out, and the thing ran great.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

Semi-auto reliably ran great in super safe mode.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)

Did a full magazine dump.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

It was like, holy shit, this went really, really well.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

Oh, it's the change of a firing pin.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Live Fire Media Show 035 โ€“ Range Hot at Gunsite

Kind of why.
