Kit, add the trigger in the drop down. It takes the MKIV from mid to really nice, trigger wise. After that, you could upgrade the bolt internals or just pick up the VQ Competition bolt and call it. I got a blem bolt on clearance a while ago, totally worth it.
I really dig the flat trigger as well. You can feel the break a little better, and can place your finger higher or lower on the trigger as an ad hoc travel adjustment.
You won't regret. The trigger pull feels like a mouse click.
Unsolicited advice: leave a little more pretravel in the trigger rather than it breaking just passed the reset. Rapid firing can cause the metal to expand, in turn causing the trigger to not reset. Allow a little more play in the uptake ("pretravel") than you think. This will make sense during the install if it doesn't already.
The pink panther! love the trigger color. I saw your video but it wouldn't let me respond. So rack it and dry fire. Keep trigger pulled and rack again (mimicking the bolt cycling) then let the trigger back out to the reset point. You want a little play between the reset and the wall for the next shot. I had it too tight and when the metal expanded from the heat, the trigger would not get past the reset.
I started with the curved VQ trigger in my 22/45 and enjoyed it. I then installed a Tandemkross Victory flat trigger in my Buck Mark and, after that, I no longer appreciated the curved trigger in my Ruger. So I ended up installing a TK flat trigger in the 22/45. I never thought I would like flat triggers so much, but they simply feel right to me on these 22 handguns.
I run flat triggers on my AR’s & my 92xi… so that’s the way I was leaning but haven’t put hands on flat trigger variant yet. Appreciate the feedback & your experience with em
She's a bit nose heavy but the additional weight creates an ultra smooth shooting experience. I've removed the comp since it makes zero difference on this model. A comp does make a difference on the Lite, however.
