I know I have seen it on here before, but I can't find it. I saw something on herr about notched and un-notched hammers being used with the 22lr conversion.
But I can't find it, the problem i am having is that some times my trigger will not reset I have to push it foward I never had this happen before. I just got my 22lr conversion in today. The fcg area is clean the ammo was cci high vlocity. THe trigger is cmmg the lower is spike. If you gauys can help thank you i need ideas O, i called cmmg left a message with tec. dept.

CMMG kit I assume????

Check the Spikes industry section, they have numerous topics on thier 22 conversion kit.  I am sure you can find some info there.

Notched hammers can catch the bottom of the bolt whereas a DPMS non notched hammer won't.  You can file the hammer or the bottom of the conversion kit if your not concerned about your warranty.  Sometimes the conversion kit bolts will drag on the bolt catch or charging handle which can slow the the bolt.  Sometimes on a new conversion the ammo is not hot enough to cock the hammer after firing.  If you go to the pistol and rimfire section there are several threads on tuning conversion kits.  On new kits it best to use lube and some people polish the kits to improve functioning.  Don't give up you'll sort out your problems.

I have a Ciener kit.  Had it for years.  Used it in 3 different guns with notched hammers.  No issues.

Keep it CLEAN, and keep it lubed.

Break-in might be in order, too.

My friend's brand-new conversion was having trigger reset issues, but eventually calmed down, and also responded more favorably to different ammo.
