I just finished a little trick I read about a while back in a thread here( can't remember when or where) You buy a 1/2" long 1/4 28 set screw( the kind with an allen head and no shoulder), remove the grip, and screw it in where the grip screw goes. Cock the hammer(obviously with the upper broken open so you can watch, and unloaded) and turn the screw in until the hammer trips. Then back it up until you can operate the safty selecter. You should be at least one turn back from tripping the hammer. Now either shorten your grip screw, or add a couple washers, or replace it with a shorter one, and reinstall the grip. You will find that almost all creep has been eliminated from your trigger. Now " bump test" your rifle. Drop it on the butt onto a padded surface from 8-10 inches. (collapse your stock first if you have that type) If you pass, you're good to go. If not, back off the set screw until you pass. I did this after mirror polishing the sear surfaces and trigger surfaces(but not the part contacting the lower) of the pins with a dremel, and adding the JP springs. Now I have a no creep, no grit, clean breaking, light, slick trigger. I honestly don't know how it could be any better. For those of you that like to tinker, this is a really great, low-buck project. Should already be running a good grease on the fire control group, and although my ARmalite was tapped all the way through, My buddies Tactical machine lowers had to be tapped the final few threads into the lower(chased really), which required dissasmbly. It works by jacking  the rear of the trigger lever up, essentialy begining to pull the trigger for you, shortening the sear length you have to pull with your finger. The felt result is a shorter pull, with no creep. Can't wait to get to the range, I've got a hundred dry fires and it feels great!

Flame away!

Or you can just drill that end of the hole out with a slightly bigger drill bit if you don't have a tap in the right size.  I did this on a DPMS lower when installing a Jard trigger which uses the same type of set-screw.

I've had the springs for a couple hundred rounds, no problems with a variety of commercial 5.56 & .223 ammo. The polish job too, I just added the creep control as the final piece of the trigger job. My buddies 6.8 had the same problem as you with the springs on Silver State Ammo. He called JP and they sent him the Red tactical hammer spring to replace the yellow for free. Good people, great customer service. They say right on their websight that the yellow springs won't work for everyone and are only recommended for bench and plinking. They sell the set with the Red spring for tactical/defense use. My friends Tactical Bambi Assult Rifle tested good withthe red spring but hasn't been out for an extended range session. Also, I forgot to mention that we bobbed the hammer spurs to reduce the mass and lock time. I don't see any reason for failure, the trigger is operating on it's original geometry and surfaces, I'm just lightening the stress loading on the sear and reducing the length of pull. It would still cross the same thresholds if pulled from it's original configuration. If anything, it should last longer than normal because of the reduced spring tension. Pleases explain how I'm wrong.

I've mentioned performing this procedure in several previous threads. It's worked well for me, the Allen set screw is not a must on all triggers. Occasionally you run into a combo that has very little creep, this will help those that don't turn out so well. I've apparently also been one of the fortunate ones, I've had zero ignition problems using the JP springs. I have them in a number of rifles and have installed them in dozens of builds, people are not telling me about problems using them. I love em'.

So can I get the Jard for the $10 & change that I have in my trigger job? Really, It's #3.5, maybe 4lb, I'm guessing because I don't have a guage handy, but so short and clean I really don't see how it could be better. I've got a few other rifles laying around that have some decent triggers, and this one is as good as any. No way for me to prove it to you, you'd just have to try it. Plus I get a lot of satifaction from the DIY aspect of it. Gearhead, I think I probably picked it up from one of your earlier threads about it. I know I read it somewhere....

As for that fancy brownells adjuster,well.......$44 vs my friend bought a bag of 100 1/2" 1/4 28 set screws for $11, and you only have to adjust the trigger one time with the grip off using the "cheapo" method.... You decide

I was under the impression that the grip screw in the above kit was hollow and that the adjustment came from the bottom of the receiver. I read about this kit a couple of years back. It's what gave me the confidence to try the Allen set screw on top of the grip screw. I've also found that often the original grip screw will work when using the Allen screw on top of it. Depending upon which grip is used some end up being too long. I keep several different Allen screws on hand in 1/4" increments. I'm also one of those malcontents that actually likes an Allen head grip screw. These are .15 to .25 a piece at the hardware store depending upon length needed. When using a set screw to limit the trigger creep  Loctite is a must. If you're looking for technical instructions on how to adjust this set up go to JP's trigger site. Though their adjustable trigger is a completely different design (I've got a couple of these also) the concept is the same. You can print and follow these instructions to use with the Allen set screw.

This set screw mod is hardly any different than Bill S. mod of tacking a spot of weld at the tail to adjust for creep.  Plus if you attempt to screw the screw too deep your safety won't function.  Oh and don't think someone else doesn't polish the surfaces either for his $35/$45 fee, if your fearing that the parts are barely surfaced hardened and a little polish is going to ruin them.

That is true but I don't believe he ever admitted to putting them there.  Was it not that the rifle was manufactured that way as an older Olympic?  My point was he probably told him self at some time that there weren't any ATF agents in his rifle club etc....  There wasn't one lurking behind every bush.  I doubt he worried much about the ATF.

But if you prefer there are cases where straight up malfunctions with broken parts have been tried by the ATF.

Either way I really don't care.  I simply think everyone should consider that fact.  That was all I really had to say on the issue in the first place.

Just as with M16 carriers because Colt uses them you have some protection.  For lowers that come with a set screw you have some protection in that they were manufactured that way.  

Only takes a yes or no question.  Did you install that part in your rifle to modify the action or function of the fire control group?  Yes or No? Anyway I'm tired of this dead horse.

I have taken the time to familiarize myself with the Olofson case, it is a travesty in every way. The man was destroyed bay the ATF for no valid reason. Gun Owners of America have established a releif fund for his family to help support them during this difficult time while he is imprisoned and pending his appeal. Here is the link, so put your money where your mouth is and help his family, as I have.

http://gunowners.org/olofson.htm

That said, several things occured to him that I will not have happen to me; one, he loaned his rifle out. I will let people shoot my rifles, in my presence, but they don't leave home without me. This led to the second thing, multiple malfunctions(three in the report I read) One double-tap and I'm done. I have never had such a malfuntion and don't anticipate one.Finally, the range I shoot at is rural, has multiple legal auto shooters on a regular basis, and shares the property with a police/school range where full auto fire is relatvely common. I suspect a small burst malfunction would go unnoticed. I also take issue with my mods being"substandard". My rifle is all high quality parts and the set screw is a hardened steel part set in a high quality Aircraft aluminum loweragainst a high quality FCG. Nothing substandard about it.
Finally, as a Free American, I refuse to be cowed by the ATF or anyone else. While I do not put myself out in the public eye or seek their attention, I will continue to pursue my perfectly legal hobby as I see fit. And as to whats his name who I've aready forgotten, had he merely referenced the case in point in the first place as a kind suggestion instead of his shrill" FELONY WARNING WILL ROBINSON!"  he would have gotten a lot more respect.

Jerry rigged...and on what facts do you base this brilliant, little assumption? Do you know anything about this member and his engineering skills? Have you ever been to the range with him? I'll venture to say 'no' on both fronts. I was there, I've fired this rifle; it's flawless.

So let me see if I understand; if you take it to someone or send it off, where you can't see whats been done, it's gunsmithing, but if I do it at home, it's dangerous jerry rigging? Just making sure......Glad somebody came along to finally straighten me out. I picked up this tinkering with my triggers habit when I was twelve and swapped out the sole spring behind my Marlin single shot for a lighter one from a ball point pen after reading some Jim Carmichel story in Outdoor Life. Still have the rifle, still shoots, 35+ years later. Lots of triggers tinkered with since then.
I have tools, I like to think I have a few rudimentary skills, I even have a little card and a magazine subscription that says I'm a member of a gunsmithing assosiation. But I guess since I don't make a living at it, I'm not qualified to modify my own rifle.So what build it yourself mods meet your approval? Parts swapping? Buying expensive things that someone else made?
    My neighbor just gave me a small lathe and promised to teach me how to use it.(and he's going to show me how to use his mill and surface grinder) so I can't wait to try something new(maybe a brake). Maybe I'll mill out my own trigger group......

No offense intended here but it kind of sounds like someone who hasn't
spent much time looking at a trigger or this mod in particular. This may be a poor comparison but you don't have to be a mechanic to preform mechanical procedures. Lots of people lay in their drive way and change their oil, tune the engine, replace brake linings every bit as well as the certified technician in the shop. Literally the job can be done no better than what than a particular shade tree mechanic might do regardless of where you take the car.
This can be true of small gun smithing tasks, there are many skill levels when it comes to gun smiths. In fact a gun smith's ability may not have anything to do with his skill but perhaps access to specific equipment. "Smith A" may not have the ability to machine or mill certain projects, "Smith B" may be able to complete this project. This doesn't mean that "Smith A" is any less qualified to do another task that "Smith B" can do, in fact he may do it better depending upon the circumstance. What is important with respect to what you have said is simply this, a person needs to be up to the task they are preforming in order to not make their gun less safe or reliable. Anyone reading this thread will agree, if you aren't comfortable making a modification to a firearm pay someone you trust that can do the job.

Yes you could. In essence that is how many after market manufacturers make their adjustable triggers. That said, you'll either have to drill the
trigger rail in the center of the tail for a small set screw or weld and add some type of fixture
on to the rear side of the trigger rail to hold a set screw. In fact you can do as Bill Springfield does and weld a spot on the bottom or the trigger rail and then grind the spot for a custom fit. Brownell's sells an trigger jig that sits outside of the receiver using the hammer and trigger holes, it allows all of the custom fitting to be made in plain sight. All of these methods will accomplish
the same thing it's just that the one the OP mentions is easily
accomplished without specialty tools. Literally anyone comfortable with
their skills can do it.

Yeppers, thats the one. My friend one upped me and used a 3/8" 1/4 28. The three eiths ususally allows you to reuse your grip screw with only the addition of a thick flat washer under the star washer. With a 1/2" you may have to shorten your grip screw a tad.

This is a very simple and effective addition to a DPMS shitty trigger. Along with the older "15 minute trigger job" thread and I have a pretty nice trigger now. DPMS triggers are very bad.

Thanks guys for posting this stuff.
