I just installed a McCormick trigger pack in my Olympic Arms carbine. The install went fine (about 5 min.) and the resulting trigger was very nice (flat single stage). I safety tested the trigger and eveything worked fine. I took it to the range and it worked flawlessly through 3 mags. Then it doubled. I thought I had inadvretenly bumpfired it so I tried again and it quadupaled. I stopped shooting then and put the gun away. I have emailed the distributor i bought the trigger from today but don't expect to hear from them until Monday. I am not the most mechanical guy in the world but I dont see how I could screw up droping the trigger group in and poping in 2 pins. My question. Has anyone experienced this with the McCormick trigger? I know they are new so maybe not. Maybe I got a bad one that was set too light at the factory. I am a bit leery about slapping another one in now. Maybe it would be best to ship the lower out and have a RRA trigger installed. Anyone have a comment on my experiences? BTW I was sighting in my Aimpoint and slowfiring from the bench. |

I emailed RBPrecission and they were very prompt about getting back to me. They said they would contact McCormick and swap out triggers. Like I said, the install was a dream and the trigger was very nice...until it went auto. I even loaded the first 3 mags with only 2 rounds just in case. I guess something got pollished just a little too much after 90 rounds or so. I keep you posted. Jaycat |
Talked to Chip this morning, mailed me a curved two stage for replacement, will forward as soon as it arrives. They were very helpful and apologetic, they a great group and eager to get you shooting again. Robert |

Outstanding!!! I'll ship out the old one Thursday (my only day off duty--gotta keep working O.T. to pay for toyshouroly Thanks Jaycat. |

Jaycat, received the two stage today it will go out to you in the morning priority, I checked it in a PWA and a RRA rifle and worked great, please let me know your findings. Wish this could have been perfect for you out of the gate but am confident we will get you shooting a sweet trigger soon. If this doesnt do it I am going to fly down there and replace the lower half!  Thank you Robert |
Riggo, as far as single stages the sweetest 4-5 pound pulll we have felt has been the McCormick, I have also used the Jard, it wasnt as simple as the drop in McCormick. They make it so easy and can drop in in under two minutes including removing the old stuff. On the list of improving accuracy this is #1 or #2 1. Freefloat 2. Good trigger/lighter pull 3. Quality sling 4. Good repeatable sights/optics 5. Quality ammo 6. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE Let us know if we can help. |
