P09 trigger not resetting
« on: April 09, 2023, 04:15:31 PM »
I installed CGW springs(13lb hammer, reduced trigger, reduced plunger, reduced firing pin) in a new P09 and the trigger will not reset during DA dry fire.  Suggestions?

Make sure the trigger bar spring is positioned under the trigger bar and that it has good upward tension on it.

Trigger bar spring is under the bar.  I did bend it down a bit, but Increased tension after the failure to reset.  I'll increase it a bit more to see if it helps.

Maddening. Frustrating. Infuriating......

Once you get it sorted it out, give us a range report.

Ordered a P10 last night, when it arrives I'm taking em both and my P07 to the range.

The P07 was easy to install the same CGW springs and trigger is great.  The P09 was a pita and trigger still has a hitch aside from the failure to reset.

Yeah agree it sounds like trigger bar spring unless proven otherwise; last P-09 I did had what sounds like same issue (posted somewhere here and members helpfully pointed out it's a known issue); though I (thought) I didn't mess much with the original spring.  After a great deal of swapping parts, trial and error with my other P-09, confirmed it was the problem, though the culprit spring was no different in shape nor in subjective tension on the bar.  Got a fresh spring in it and no further issues- YMMV of course.

Read through this thread it deals with some tuning on the P-07/09 series and shows some adjusting of the trigger bar spring.

Saw that, followed the instructions for the trigger bar spring and had issues, bent it back where it was and still have issues.  P09 may be getting sold.

Sometimes this happens. There's no such thing as DROP IN no matter what anyone says. There are times when you have to work through an issue such as this and you can learn something from it.
You know you can call CGW and talk to them about the issues you are having and they are VERY good about walking a person through the steps to a resolution.

I did call cgw today, good folks.  Will follow their instructions and go from there.  Just a little frustrated, I'll live.  :)  Thanks for the help.

 After talking to CGW still having issues.  Filled out the online warranty forms and CZ emailed me a label.  Dropped it off today.

You have your P-09 back yet? If so, how is it running?
