The clunk happens when once in a blue moon the hammer comes back to half cock.  I'd love to know why.  See if it happens to you. Load a snap cap and fire double action until it happens.  I have the cgw short reset kit but it did it before that.  I've never noticed interruption in firing with about 1k through it.

When I dry fire the pistol, before the CGW reset kit and after, there's a noticeable "clunk" every once in a while while dry firing.  It's shot 950 rounds with no problems, rapid, slow, whatever, so I guess it doesn't matter but I wonder what it is or what it's an indication of.  I can't replicate it.  I use snap caps.  I dry fire and it goes; snap snap snap snap snap CLUNK snap snap snap snap snap.  What's the clunk?

Make a video and maybe someone can figure it out from that.

Maybe the hammer fall is stopped by the half cock notch.

Well certainly not with that attitude

Ha!  I'm scared of technology and my fear manifested.  I guess it's no biggie, I was just being anal.  Everything seems fine so I'll chalk it up to different trigger pressure or angle from me.

Is the clunk the trigger mechanism or the firing pin/snapcap?

Sometimes my snapcaps sound funny when dry firing...

Feels like it's in the gun but hmm, who knows?
