just curious... been lurking for a while and have been planning on doing this as well. has anyone used the Jard adjustable triggers? I'm looking at the 1.5lb trigger at midway for very light weight and price being what it is. from what I've read, as long as i swap out the FP spring first i shouldn't have any problems with it right? originally i had tried just bending the hammer spring, but i broke it of at the bend and need to change the FP spring anyways.
 
19 mags! Holy **** dude, I'm envious, you pay full price for those?
@Hilers, the reality of it is it most likely will work, if the $90 2 stage rock river works then i am sure a even lighter pull one will work, but there just havent been too many people testing it fully and letting us know. The only one that I can find that is a sure thing accessories and all and all kinds of ammo is the timney. Although I have read some good things about geissele as well on onother thread but those are even pricier.

I just put a Jard single-stage adjustable in my 15-22. The trigger comes with a new hammer spring; you don't need any other springs. Installation and adjustment took about 45 minutes and is pretty straight forward. You can d/l the instructions from the Jard web site before purchasing.

One of the adjustments is the sear engagement depth and this adjustment has a direct effect upon the trigger pull weight. Using the 1.5 lb trigger spring I could get the TP down to 1.75 lbs as measured with a Lyman digital TP gauge but I was just not comfortable with how it felt - it felt a little unstable, for lack of a better word. I increased the engagement to what I was comfortable with and wound up with a 2 lb, 5 oz pull with just a hint of creep. I am satisfied with that.

One thing to be aware of; the sear engagement screw is a 1/4"x28x1/2" hex screw that goes into the same hole the the pistol grip bolt does and is screwed up into the FCG cavity. The original pistol grip bolt is now too long and can bottom out against the adjustment screw if one isn't careful. The trigger kit includes a replacement screw, but it is made for ARs and is a tad too short for the 15-22. You will need a1/4"x28x3/4" hex bolt - about 50 cents at your local hardware store. One further note; the boss that the grip bolt and adjustment screw screws into is polymer. Be careful not to cross thread either one. It is easy to do.

The whole process isn't difficult; just pay attention to what you are doing. I almost had a hard time justifying $150 for a replacement trigger, but no matter what I did, I couldn't get the factory trigger below a creepy 4.5 pounds. Now I'm glad I spent the money.

Holy Jesus!!!
 
Anybody found/made a slide fire slip over grip? Not a big fan of the grip thought maybe there was some kind of rubber slip over grip oit there someone had found or made.
 
Try looking for some hogue slip on grips. They make some universal ones that I'm sure could be trimmed to fit. Good idea by the way:cool:
 
One with small finger grooves would be nice too. I want to make a way to take all of the play out of the stock when engaged for semi auto fire. That little bit of play (and the grip) make it hard to enjoy shooting bech rest ect. Having better positive lockup would make it more enjoyable to shoot precisely.
 
Sorry for the off the wall topic change and repetitiveness of my posting lol!
 
Wait, is there a lock up for the slide fire? I thought it always slid, I would love to be able to lock it in the furthest position rather then having to hold it tight against my shoulder!
 
You know what would be even better would be a grip that could clip onto that slide fire block so you could easily pop off the slide fire, stick your stock back on and snap a grip onto the slide fire block without having to unscrew anything!

This sounds just like the thread that was quite contentious about installing the set screw to remove trigger creep. Are you saying this is a procedure recommended by a trigger manufacturer?

It's not a recommendation; it's in Jard's installation instructions and must be done for the trigger to function.

Funny thing is, one trigger "expert" accomplishes the same thing by welding a bead on the bottom of the factory trigger, with other "experts" declaring it is somehow different because it isn't adjustable.

Personally, I'll go with the trigger manufacturer.

Addendum: It's also important to note that the geometry of the Jard is slightly different from the stock trigger; the Jard is designed for individual adjustment and the stock trigger isn't; and all these after-market triggers are made for the AR15/M16 platform and not specifically for the 15-22.

Great Idea

You know what would be even better would be a grip that could clip onto that slide fire block so you could easily pop off the slide fire, stick your stock back on and snap a grip onto the slide fire block without having to unscrew anything!

I like that idea, one of my sons is a left handed shooter; having the adjustable stock option and support his shooting style without having to mess with springs would be nice.

Yes it locks back for shooting single shots.

That's a WONDERFUL idea.. Hint hint
