Attached are pics of the pending CGW trigger return system. There are 3 parts:
1) Stainless steel tempered spring clip
2) Precision 4140 steel sleeve w/3 grooves
3) Extension Spring
The stainless steel spring clip is fully tempered which makes it very tough and resilient. It has 3 small precision holes drilled to accommodate either a single extension spring in the center, or 2 smaller extension springs L & R of the center groove. The spring clip clears everything in the frame with room to spare since it hugs the trigger bar closely. It simply springs onto the trigger bar.
The sleeve is cut on a swiss-screw machine and is crafted from 4140 steel with 3 - small spring retention grooves. The extension spring will be made from music wire and we are in the final phase of determining the ideal spring rates. Extension springs have a lifespan measured in hundreds of thousands of cycles. So it should be bye-bye broken trigger return springs.
The system is assembled outside of the frame and uses our floating trigger pin, but other trigger pins will work equally as well. The sleeve is designed to "drop" into the TR-PIN's smaller center section, effectively locking the TR-PIN in place. The TR-PIN can still be removed with a medium tap on the end of the pin, exactly the same as it is now with the old style torsion spring.
Cool thing is this is a very tight, well integrated system using the OEM trigger and trigger bar. When using 2 springs, it has the potential to be the ultimate in a reliable functioning CZ trigger return system. We plan on pricing this around $38.00 plus S&H. Once the spring rates are dialed in, it should be available in the next few months.
