Short Sear vs Long Sear

siegersallee · 08-24-2015, 01:18 PM

Hmmm...I have a 1914 Erfurt (4" barrel) with a short (relieved sear).
Did they go back and retrofit some of the pre-1916s like they did the hold-opens?

Aesthetically, I like the long sear for looks especially with the safety on.
I like the way the safety abuts the sear but, that is just me.

Yes, some by relieving the existing sear bar and some by replacing it altogether.
