I have the Custom shop CZ 75 SA. I have @500 or so rounds through it and a LOT of dry fire time. It shoots great but the trigger is well under 3lbs., closer to two. I have not put it on a gauge but it is light. I like than in a 1911 but it's not working for me here. I'm getting to many uh-ho double taps. I know it has the 13 lb hammer spring in it now.Do I just change the spring? I'm going to order the pack with the three different weight's to try. How does this work, if I add two lbs of spring will it give me one lb of trigger weight?
I think I want it @ 3.5 lbs. thanks eerw, you around?

I too have a way light SA trigger pull, but thankfully *I* haven't had double tap issues. Dare I suggest you practice more to see if you can master the pull better before you change parts out? I hate to see a nice trigger amped up.

| I'll try the 15 lbs spring and see how that works. I have a 2 lb trigger on a 1911 but it's not the same as a CZ. I think it's because the CZ is on a pivot and the 1911 is straight back. I may need to put a little of the pre travel back in but I'll try one thing at a time. |
OK, got the parts ordered. I ordered the 13,15 and 16 lb hammer springs also got another 11 lb and a 13 lb recoil spring. Also ordered a slide stop to have a spare.
I think I will try changing the recoil spring first to see if that changes how the gun recoils. If that does not work will go back to the 11 lb recoil spring and go to the 15 or 16lb hammer spring to see what I get. I think with just a little tuning I can get the trigger I want.

the pivoting trigger puts a little more leverage on the action and it feels like less force. I think that may be the problem. With most of the pretravel out of the trigger I think my finger comes off just enough to let it reset and I hit it again.
eerw, how do you have your single action set up? |
