safety only works from half cock
« on: June 17, 2016, 08:07:26 PM »
I juts installed the CGW pro grade kit, and now the safety only works from the half cock position.   It won't rotate to safe when the hammer is fully cocked.  Any ideas?

I guess if push comes to shove, I'll just have to wait until monday and give em a call.

Allright.  Put the yellow sear spring in .018".  Still not engaging.  Thought maybe the .020" spring was too stiff and not allowing the sear enough play which would affect the safety lever.

At wits end.  One good thing about it, I am getting really good at taking the dang thing apart now.

Mine was that way after I installed the CGW hammer. I don't have a pic but a couple very light passes with a fine stone on the safety lever and it was good as gold.

Yep, you called it. That's exactly what cgw told me too. Fixed the problem, I'm up and running.

The parts kit made all the difference in the world. The s/a trigger is insane now.
