[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3102754, member: 41653"] Funny, I'm not one much for U-tube, I never looked for a video like that. I wish the guy would shut the he77 up, and just get on with it. What I want is a short block of instruction, not a dissertation about how his wife found whatever at the store. That shim doesn't reduce travel, it reduces effort - the weight of the trigger pull. It moves the sear/spring away from the trigger. That being said, I did figure out the sear shim, and cut one from a soda can - .004" thick. I installed it, but I did it at the same time I installed the smoothed trigger, so I really cannot tell if the shim made a difference or not. I don't want to go too thick, I can see slam-fires coming down that road. However, I think .004" is a bit thin. I'll keep trying. I think I have some old copper washers from brake hose connections, I'll see how thick they are. The spring - that's a good idea. I tried one from a staple remover, but the inside diameter is small. Before I try drilling it out I may see what else I have around here. Thanks Darren ! [/QUOTE]
