What problems if any would a fcg pocket machined to deep cause? Do triggers touch the bottom of the fcg pocket? |

Last pass something moved. I came out .026 to deep or .016 over max depth. I think they allow for .010 plus or minus.

Quote HistoryQuoted: You are fine, just don't go any deeper, but .010 over is not going to affect the way it operates at all. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You are still fine, the gun will run with no problems, I think we have all screwed up on them at one time or another and all of mine run just fine, I own over 30 of them and 25 of them I have milled on my mini mill, so I am sure my tolerances are off in some areas. So currently you are at 1.275, you might have a little bit longer trigger pull, but it will not really affect anything. One thing that might be in play is the tension on the trigger spring with it being a bit deeper, but I suspect it will no present any problems. I thought The trigger pull stops on the safety? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Got it. Thanks I won’t get it finished to try for awhile. It would eat me up inside not knowing but your post told me everything I want. I thought The trigger pull stops on the safety? these guns are not really something to obsess over, there is really a lot of flexibility in the build on this particular platform of gun.

Quote HistoryQuoted: It does, just be careful when you drill your holes and make damn sure they are in the right spot, do not try to compensate with the holes and the only reason I mention that is I had a friend that thought because he machined a bit to deep that he should adjust the trigger, hammer and safely hole, I ended up giving him a new lower to mill and I kept his to hold notes down on my desk. these guns are not really something to obsess over, there is really a lot of flexibility in the build on this particular platform of gun. |

There's some leeway in that dimension. I just put an Elftmann drop-in trigger in one of my home-machined lowers. The Elf triggers actually come with a steel shim to drop into the lower before you drop the trigger in - the tensioning screws hit the steel instead of chewing up the aluminum lower. So - obviously some room to work with.
If you were really concerned, you could make a shim out of thin shim stock to take up the extra space. |
