MkII (22/45) Trigger Issues

Colt45GCNM · October 1, 2004, 10:57 AM

I have a 22/45 and after my gunsmith installed a new lighter hammer in it and did a trigger job on it I find that sometimes(usually?) after you fire the gun you have to manually return the trigger to the forward position, it returns really close, but not quite enough, any ideas guys? I've only glanced at it and I'm sure with effort I can fix it, I'd just rather be lazy and hope somebody here has ran into this before

Cheers,

why not take it back to your gunsmith and let him fix the problem?

Out of town.. Besides I really should know how to work on this baby, I think I'm close anyway now, I've taken it down, and the pin that goes through the hammer was moving about inside the gun and it was binding up on the disconnector, I fixed the darn thing and now the problem is "better" but I think I'm going to have to do a bit more fine tuning to get it right... What the heck, I enjoy doing this anyhow...
