Hi to all! Well, had another dose of all day crazy repair effort yesterday!
![]() Soooo, I get it all together and dry fire it at the bench and it won't go off!!!! I squeeze it as hard as I can and no dice, after several disassemblies and parts swapping, I can just barely get it to work with about fifty pound trigger pull!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() BTW, remember! We're all crazy, some of us just get caught!! ![]() |

Any idea where that replacement spring came from?
Who carries reliable replacement part ? I've bought a few small parts from SARCO that worked for me, but no springs. |

Hi Russ, I don't know as I've never bought specifically Luger trigger springs? I get them in parts groupings that usually have a couple tossed in, or as tag alongs on quantity trigger purchases. I wasn't aware that the heavy ones could be problematic? I'll be a lot more careful on trigger springs going forward... best, til....lat'r....GT...

I'd love a packet of springs of all of them in a luger and also all the small pins and then buy about 20 packs of them

I had a Luger once with a light but smooth trigger pull..turns out someone replaced the original they likely lost in the carpet with a ball point pen spring. It worked...

Hi Rick, I think on the average, wolfe springs are pretty good replacement springs? But, I'm not familier with their trigger spring?
The three most important springs in a Luger are the mainspring, the extractor spring, and the magazine spring. ![]() ![]() |

I've bought the wolff spring kits a couple of times, usually forget to use all of them
![]() I had just bought a spring and pin replacement kit for the 1911 is why I stated above it'd be nice to get all the small parts. |
