Installing VQ kit in MKiii 22/45 hunter
Posted: Thu Aug 13, 2009 5:48 pm
I ordered this kit and was shocked at the set of instructions that came with it. It's about the size of a business card and the print was so small I had a hard time reading it with my glasses on!
Thank goodness I had found guntalk. Bullseye's instructions and photos made it very easy. I just set my laptop on my workbench and went through his instructions step by step. I replaced the hammer, sear, and trigger and while I had it apart I disabled the LCI and replace the extractor with one from VQ. What a difference. It's like a completely new gun. I don't have a pull gauge but I would guesstamate trigger pull to 2.5 lbs and very crisp. Very little pre travel or post travel after adjusting the trigger. My next step is to remove the mag safety and I also ordered a set of grips that can be installed without grinding down the frame. Waiting for them to come in.
Thanks for a most informative forum Bullseye. I learn something new everytime I visit.
