Got my Brownell's order in yesterday. I ordered the match quality sear and disconnector for my Springfield Armory Black Stainless loaded. I've been looking at the 1911 thread and decided to try my hand. My goal is to get a better trigger, and to see if I can work on the gun without screwing up.
I did the complete disassembly this morning. Filed the trigger tracks. Took the edges off the trigger band. Did a very faint polish with the white stone on the sear and disconnector. Left the hammer alone for now. Put it all back together and it seems fine. Maybe slightly better than stock parts. I haven't had a chance to shoot it, but I've been dry firing with snap cap and cycling the action while the games were on.
The trigger breaks very nice. I'm thinking there is still a bit more pull than I'd like. I don't understand the idea of bending the leaf spring, so I'm leaving that alone for now.
Undoubtedly need to run a few hundred rounds through it to check things out. I am going to load magazines with the two rounds until I'm sure I didn't screw anything up.
I have that ILS system on the Springer. I'm thinking of replacing it.
I enjoyed taking the gun apart that I tore down my new S&W1911PD Commander. I filed the trigger channels and polished the band. Left the other stuff alone. Just cleaned it up and looked it over. Feels good to be able to tear these guys down to bare bones for cleaning.
Thanks to all who have contributed to the store of knowledge.
