Trigger pull

The shim material is a .250 thick piece of brass flat stock a half an inch wide and 10 inches long that you can pick up in various thicknesses at most hobby shops. It is thin enough that you can cut it to shim size with a standard pair of scissors (no tin snips neceaary). Once you cut the shim to fit in the trigger slot, use a tack hammer to tap it flat and use some gun grease or oil to stick it to the top of the trigger slot so that when you install the side plate the side plate lever will go in the trigger slot under the shim. It just basically causes the side plate lever to engage the sear bar a fraction earlier than before. If it doesn't work the first time, try another thickness. The stuff is inexpensive.
