A short time ago I acquired an Arcus 94 Fullsize in a trade. Came with a couple of mags and was a fair trade. Upon recieving the gun I noticed the trigger had "stages"....2 or 3 of them before it broke. Interesting.......
It shot nicely, was accurate and reliable at the first shoot...but the trigger made flyers a common thing. Not good.
Being a "NEWBIE"
to Hi Power Ownership.....I dropped the gun off at a local 1911/HP smith who is Way Reputable locally. They called and told me the sear was broken or chipped.
After trying a couple of BHP sears in it they came to the conclusion it needed an Arcus sear to make it perfect........The Browning/FN parts werent close enough to work. I guess they had a small problem with Century getting them parts and finally got a "gimme" out of them for being such a PITA! Hey, free is good!
So 5 weeks later I got a call......Your gun is ready!"......Xmas all over again.
These guys are pretty cool........"We have the highest prices in the state"..Thanks god we have the biggest discounts also" Kinda place.
So......."How much is the adventure gonna cost me?".............55$ out the door..............
Labor to inspect, trial fit, inspect again, get the right part, stone it and assemble..............55$..........OK
Now for the best part.....its the cleanest SA trigger Ive shot next to my Custom CZ SA........very close Walt! Very close. Its around 4#'s with so little take up and overtravel its hard to find it and then Broken glass...
So I pack it up and take it for a test drive. The only range close was an outdoor range with a 25 yd pistol range. I had limited ammo......150 rnds of WWB to play with. From a bench rest it consistantly grouped around 2-3" when I did my part. Very Very nice........
The gun is NOT tight in the frame/slide but the barrel lockup is pretty good.
With a little tightening here and there, it would be an absolute heart breaker.
All in all Im very very impressed with it. It even has a new house to live in on my belt. Not to shabby for a very reasonably priced HP clone.
Sorry for the long post but I felt it was worth it. This is one of the softest shooting 9mm's Ive ever had in my hands. The worn recoil spring is the main reason.......but thats another post............
Shoot well.
