Installed target trigger and disconector

Was able to get one of the old style Volquartsen SS target triggers. I polished all areas and chamfered all holes to insure no burrs. Also installed new Volquartsen titanium disconnector, polished all areas that contacted other parts to include the sear. Once installation was complete I tested the trigger pull weight. I tested it 10 times and it repeated every time at 1 Lb. Before this install the pistol tested at 1.5 lbs. The trigger brake is very crisp, no felt drag. This trigger poundage is not for everyone but I built this for testing ammo and bench rest shooting. It is amazing what can be done with a dremel tool and hand honing.

That trigger looks real nice Dri Wash. Let us know how it works for you at the range.

That trigger looks great, as do the target grips. Two questions:
1. how do you like the compensator?
2. which make and model scope is that?
Nice looking Mark.

Paul, being a 5 1/2" barrel it added nice balance to the front. The scope is a Victor 2X, it is a low cost scope, and has been very consistent.

Thanks for question and comments

Nice Job. I have the trigger on my MKIII in the 1# range... Very very light.
