I started my first 10/22 build. I and purchased a new gun to start with. The trigger was super heavy. I know there are several aftermarket options that are pretty spendy.
Instead, I dropped my trigger group, gave it a look over and took it apart. After figuring out how it worked and finding out why it was heavy, I took to the hammer with a dremel and a very fine, soft polishing stone. After an hour or so of "test and tune", it feels like a whole new trigger! I understand that it probably messed up my warranty and all that stuff, and it's not the greatest trigger, but i know what decent triggers feel like (I have a CZ) and this one is pretty darned good. It's smooth, has no creep, is much lighter and has almost no take-up.
I understand it's not a competition trigger, but as good as it feels now, I can't imagine what I'd gain by spending $200 on a drop-in replacement. Did I do good, or am I missing something?
