I decided I want to get my factory trigger worked over and springs replaced instead of going with a drop in trigger. I hate sending things off, so I would rather get someone locally to do it. Had an awesome offer from someone on here that I just buy the springs and they do the work... Im definitely looking for a budget deal.

Might be better off, time/$ wise just buying a decent drop in trigger group. The Rock River NM trigger is hard to beat for the $. I've used many aftermarket triggers in builds for me and friends and that's the trigger I've used the most.

This. You will get a much better trigger this way. Or buy some reduced-power springs and install yourself.


The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

Glad to hear Hank is still in business. I've used him in the past a few times and his work was always great.

Check Hank's reviews first, and be prepared to wait a while...
