I have a Superior Arms lower with the little threaded screw that is supposed to adjust "trigger creep".

What is the proper way to adjust this? Or should I just toss it?  It doesn't look to me like the grip will fit properly unless
the screw is adjusted all the way flush.

It's a takeup adjustment.

put your fire control in and start running the bolt in.

Turn the bolt until you see the hammer start to move (yes, it should be cocked)

Keep turning the bolt in small increments, testing the trigger pull at each step.

Stop when you have a moderate to small amount of hammer movement before the hammer falls.

DO NOT ADJUST IT TOO FAR –– if you get it too close to the tirgger's break-point, you will have an unsafe firearm.

These are rough directions. I'm sure someone else will have chapter and verse from the manual soon.

ps –– make sure the safety still moves normally before putting the grip on.

Run it in until it interferes with the operation of the safety and back it off just enough to be able to operate the safety. With standard fire control parts that should do it.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
