Easily the best mod for your compass! Trigger pull was 7.3 lbs from factory and now with the hunting spring it’s down to a crisp 2.8 lbs. brought my 3 shot groups from just under an inch to about .5” at 100 yards. supper happy with the customer service and the great items Mcarbo produces! Shipping was super fast. Got my order in 3 days from Florida to Washington state. I look forward to doing business with Mcarbo in the future.
Received today, quickly installed. MCARBO videos are outstanding. Took trigger down from a very stiff feeling 5 lbs to a very sweet 3.25 lbs with the hunting weight spring. Right where I wanted it. Thanks MCARBO, you rule!
I purchased the Thompson Center Compass Trugger Spring Kit for my 6.5 Creedmoor. I was excited to receive it earlier than the estimated date. It was a really easy install thanks to your video. I installed it the same day and can wait to shoot it. Customer service was awesome. I look forward to more purchases. J. Cruz
I am not a gunsmith. I just wanted a lighter trigger for my son who has Cerebral palsy. I dont have the tools to check the trigger pull before and after the spring kit. The gun will be used for hunting but I used the bench spring as the gun will still be fired from a rest and not carried when loaded. My test was having my son pull the trigger before and after. He struggled before and it was easy for him after. I followed the instructional video and it was a snap to do the work myself. Thank you for a great product that is made in the USA.
Anybody who buys a TC Compass knows the trigger is not its best feature! You bought it for the price and all around good gun for the money. It will work just as it is but I wanted better. I started with replacing the stock main spring with a Winchester target spring and removed one of the top nuts and put a small washer in. (a lot of trial and error) That got me down from 5.75 to 3 but the trigger was still a little creepy, not right by my standards. I have some guns with fantastic triggers, so I know what a good one is when they break like a "glass rod". So, I tried this kit with all the springs. Put in the target spring and now I’m just under 2 lbs. but it breaks much cleaner. I was sub MOA but getting tighter groups now with a more consistent trigger break. This will be target and a hunting rig and I'm not worried about the light trigger for drop test when on fire. I don't walk around with my gun on fire. When it’s on fire, I'm pulling the trigger. Great Product, instruction video and cleaner trigger setup. Two thumbs way up!
Shipping was fast. Installation easy. The results were what I wanted. Made my TC COMPASS shoot like a dream. Night and day difference.
I wasn't a a fan of the extremely tight trigger pull from the factory. The hunter springs were easy to install, and have worked perfectly. I am very impressed. This kit is exactly what the compass should have had from the factory.
Great value upgrade for my budget rifle.
Fit was absolutely perfect and the directions were super easy to follow. My daughter helped and was useful with the tiny springs!
Ordered this, 3days later it was at my door. Installed it in 15 min and it made 100% difference. Great product!
The wife really loves the new trigger pull now. Made her more confident in her shooting and not pulling so much with the heavy stock trigger springs. She is now shooting a 1" MOA group now and ready for the ELK hunt! Also appropriate the remove & install video cause i made her do it LOL.
I can't recommend this spring kit enough. When I received my T/C Compass a week ago it had an 8 1/2 pound trigger. It was adjusted down as far as possible from the factory. I removed one of the nuts under the main trigger spring and only brought it to 5 3/4 pounds with lots of grit. It was TERRIBLE. I wasn't expecting miracles from this kit but I think that's what I got. I used the benchrest spring and teflon grease. WOW...now no grit at all and a clean 3lb break with no over travel. Mine is still drop safe but I think because it started so heavy to begin with. Honestly my Compass was almost unusable at long range because the trigger was so bad but now shoots .8 moa all day. Best trigger money Ive ever spent.
Installed the trigger spring using the mcarbo youtube tutorial. New trigger pull helped with putting in a few sub-moa groups at 200yrd using the T/C Compass. I'm in no way an experienced shooter and the sub-moa flukes (with wolf ammo!) were happy surprises.
I placed my order when the spring kit was out of stock and was told they would ship in early March 2018. The shipment was on time and arrived quickly in perfect shape. The install was relatively painless as I had watched Chris's instructional video a few times but I did need to purchase a 1/16" punch to help remove the pins. I tested my trigger prior to replacement and it was over the max for my RCBS trigger pull gauge (it only goes to 72 oz.) so I cannot confirm a 60% pull reduction however; after the springs were replaced I have a 64 ounce trigger pull, not as low as I wanted but it is a major improvement. I followed the video instructions with the exception of removing the 1/4" nut that locks the over travel adjustment and did not use any thread lock. I am glad that I didn't leave one of the trigger pull nuts on to increase the pull that I saw on the video or I would have had to pull it apart again. This trigger passed the drop test with ease, 6", 12" and 18" but I was was concerned for my scope. I have not shot since the modification but I am sure everything will be fine. DROPPING MY RIFLE FOR THE TEST WAS PAINFUL as I baby all of my equipment. I called Chris and talked to him about what I had expected from the video and he explained that the trigger spring used in the video was the bench rest spring. I wanted between 48-54 ounce pull for this hunting rifle and came up heavy and he explained that when the springs took a set it would probably be close to the 54 ounce trigger. I am impressed with the customer service that was provided, both in on time shipment and then follow-up conversation trying to meet my expectations. Thanks for your help.
I just ordered my 5th T/C Compass trigger spring kit. The rifle is ok without the spring kit but is excellent after the spring upgrade. This is an absolute must have if you are a fan of light single stage triggers like myself.
Brothers at M-CARBO are the best ! I ordered a trigger spring kit for my TC Compass which I purchased unseen so when I received my rifle (after my background check) what I bought was a Compass II model so my bad on that !! These guys called me personally to see if I was satisfied with their product. I informed him that my rifle was the gen 2 trigger. The brother told me to return it for full reimbursement ,which I appreciated ! I did not take the offer of returning the kit because the mistake was on me. As a consumer I seldom see any of this consideration from other vendors . Thanks Brothers !!!!!
