Review
the directions were easy to follow and went right in to the trigger spring spot. The sprig smoothed out the trigger pull very nicely
Excellent part, fast shipping . Video was perfect very easy to install. Cant believe how much trigger was improved. Only wish I found this product sooner. Im at 3.5 pounds cant believe it !!!!
After watching the installation video, I attempted the installation. It went pretty smoothly except installing one of the springs which was a bear.It had to go in at a certain angle, but I eventually got it back together. The reduction in the trigger was 20% (from 6lbs to 5 lbs) but the grittiness was much less.
The mini 30 gets a lot of it's "gritty" trigger feel from the fact that all the trigger parts are cast alloy. This leaves a very rough surface and mold seams on the seer, trigger, and trigger lock. My trigger was coming in right at 6#s before I did any thing. Another problem with the mini 30 is FTF due to the harder primers on Russian and Chinese ammo. I ordered a high power Wolf hammer spring since Chris doesn't sell one, and a softer seer spring from M-Carbo. I polished all the cast parts lightly and installed the seer spring. It had ZERO effect. I'm still @ six pounds and haven't installed the hammer spring yet. I'll tear it down and do some more polishing but the seer spring didn't improve anything.
This decreased the trigger pull on my 186 series mini by about 1 pound, specifically a decrease from about 5.5 pounds to about 4.5 pounds. I was happy to see this and think this improvement will help, although getting this old, pencil barrel and supposedly 1:7" twist rifle to shoot well may require some more modifications, like a barrel strut.
If you have a Mini 14 and have not put this spring in your rifle, you are missing out!!! The difference is unreal. And the installation is super simple. The YouTube video on how to do this had great details. On top of the difference it has made in the trigger, the customer service was outstanding. Product shipped right away, got it in a few days and went well! Highly recommend this kit for your Mini 14!
Got it, put it in, Flippin AWESOME! I HATED the gritty feel of the factory trigger. I used 2000 grit ruby grind stones to smooth the metal parts that rub together, but that factory spring was SO awful. I tried modifying it myself but it just would NOT work smoothly. With all the smoothing I had done, AND this spring added, it's smooth as silk now. Feels sooo good that it fires when I give the trigger a smooth pull. Haven't used a scale, but I estimate around 3 lbs now. Yea, a VERY worthwhile mod.?
Took a ‘70’s vintage Mini-14 Ranch from 5-3/4lb. trigger pull to a 3-1/2lb. trigger pull. Everything functions as it should. One little spring doesn’t seem like much for the price, but it definitely exceeded my expectations. Well done.
This spring has to be the easiest and cheapest trigger job I have ever done. As advertised the trigger pull is easily 1/3 to 1/2 lighter. I don't have a gauge so that assessment is subjective. Interestingly the trigger creep has all but vanished. There is just a hint if creep at the beginning. Grittiness is gone as well. Amazing! The installation was easy if follow the video instructions provided here. If you have any mechanical abilities whatsoever the install is a piece of cake. Highly recommended. H
My 584 series Ruger Mini 14 had a slightly heavier than medium trigger pull from the factory. I have been so used to the enhanced aftermarket triggers on my AR's that I desire a trigger pull weight close to that of my AR triggers. Polished up my trigger assembly contact and catch points to mirror finish first and tested the Ruger OEM spring: smooth pull but still had the old pull weight. Then I installed this spring from M-Carbo. WOW! The trigger pull weight was remarkably reduced; pretty close to my AR triggers. I am definitely happy with how the M-Carbo spring installation turned out. Thanks M-Carbo for testing and releasing this product. More power to you and God bless!
I recently received and installed the Mini 14 kit. The installation video was very good and the installation only took 20 minutes. The improvement was very obvious even without using a trigger pull gage.
Install the spring on a Mini-30 after watching the video. Cleaned up the trigger and reduced the pull. Will order another for my Mini-14
Order was processed and shipped very fast. Part fit great, was easy to install and there was even a video detailing how to do it. I sanded and polished the sear, hammer, and disconnector while I was in there doing the spring and ended up with a smooth 4.0 trigger. Thanks!
Cheap and quick way to clean up and lighten your trigger pull. Shipping was fast! Great company will definitely come here again for more parts.
installed the mcarbo spring on my Mini 30 and it immediately improved my trigger pull from 5.5 to just over 4 lbs. The installation took only about 5 minutes and the results were awesome.
My Ruger mini 30 trigger was terrible from the factory. After I put this spring on, the terrible went away. It is now much better, I can live with it.
