[ARCHIVED THREAD] - First build lower question

Posted: 6/20/2010 9:11:42 AM EDT

Just assembled my first lower and LPK (Spikes lower and DTI LPK). Parts all went together fine. When I cock the hammer the trigger sets and then I can pull and release the hammer. If I hold the trigger back when resetting the hammer, the trigger doesnt reset and I have to push the trigger forward to reset it. If I release the trigger before resetting the hammer, it sets just fine.

Did I put a spring in backwards?

Sounds to me like the hammer is hanging up on the disconnector, either due to something out of spec or maybe you forgot to install the disconnector spring into the trigger?

Now that I think about it, without the spring the disconnector would probably not even catch the hammer. Sounds like maybe something is too long causing the disconnector to not release the hammer when it should.
