The Official Status Update Thread: Part 111 - Ingoluminati

[SEIndSAM]

Are you going to Scype with your grandsons later today?? Bummer having them so far away at Christmas.

 

[Birds Away]

Went great, thanks for asking. Unlike Thanksgiving when my MIL chocked and passed out, we got through the holiday meal without calling 911!!

It was fun, Wife & Daughter were both excited about their gifts. SAM got the Gisselle trigger he asked for to install in my scoped AR

That sounds fantastic. Glad you all had a great time. Congrats on the new unpronounceable trigger. How long before install?

I don't know what their plans are today. Hopefully I will get to but not really a big deal. Tomorrow works just as well.

We have to have a meal with MIL at the nursing home later, as soon as we are finished the trigger is going in. 2 stage, 4 1/2 pound pull trigger system. It won't take 10 minutes to install.
I'll probably do a deep cleaning on my lower, take everything apart and wipe it down, then install the trigger when put it back together. That AR has at least 2500-3000 rounds through it, it's due for a deep clean.

Sounds like a fun, relaxing way to spend the day.

I forgot that you are not a Rifle guy. The AR trigger & hammer are just held in by 2 pins. You just drive out the old pins with a punch, remove the hammer & trigger, then reinstall. Really, it just takes a few minutes,

Plus, my oldest daughter and her somewhat liberal BF is coming over this afternoon late. Might have the AR broken down into parts when he comes over.

I am mechanically incompetent. Well, not completely. So do you reuse the pins or do they have to be replaced? I know the stock trigger pins on CZs have to be replaced with more robust after-market pins when triggers are removed or replaced.

That sounds like a hoot! Go easy and maybe you can assimilate him.

Yeah, I beg LT6 for forgiveness.

You can reuse the pins, you don't damage them when you remove them. But every time I have replaced the trigger with a new one, new pins were included in the kit.

You'd have to ask llh1956 about the CZ pins. He is the CZ whisperer. All I know is that it is recommended that they be replaced once removed.

This is the trigger I asked for....Geissele SSA 4 5lbs Trigger | eBay

Yeah, I'm going easy on him. He grew up with a somewhat liberal single mother. I think he is seeing the light after being on his own for a few years.

 

[MrsGungho]

I will be back folks

I do wish you all a Merry Christmas

 

[SEIndSAM]
