Put 500 rounds through the gun. It WILL smooth out! Trust me!After playing with it some more, I have determined that the DA pull is buttery smooth, but the SA is gritty and breaks inconsistently...
Weird.
That's strange. 5906's have pretty good triggers, really. Mine has a very smooth light SA trigger. Shot back to back with my Sig 226 or FNX, my old school 5906 makes both of their triggers look bad.I've blasted the guts out with Ballistol and lubed every moving part I could see and the action is as I described. Can't figure it out.
It's not really a problem though. It's not like it's going to be a target pistol...
It'll probably end up as a dedicated car and occasional range gun since I'll have little use for it as a carry piece once I get a Cz 75.
W.E.G.'s pic reminded me - Are you all aware that there are pointed Q tips? I'd never seen them till recently. They're VERY helpful for cleaning firing pin/striker channels, especially the little opening through which the pin strikes the primer. Can't rmember where I got mine, but I'm sure walgreens has them. If not, you can get them here:Usually real good shooters.
Give us a range report.
Have you cleaned out the firing pin channel yet?
Always the most neglected area of S&W autoloaders.
