I just put in a Jard trigger (first time for this style). It feels beautiful and after a little fitting for disconnect clearance it seems to function fine.... except that you can't cock the hammer with the safety engaged.
EDIT: I guess the real difference is that you can engage the safety with the hammer uncocked....witch would lead to bind if you then racked the slide without first disengaging the safety. Is this normal for this style of trigger? I sure don't see how it could given how the system works; but it strikes me as a safety issue with the design 
Do I have to worry about hurting something if someone tries to rack the bolt with the safety engaged? Bent pin or adjustment screw digging in and coming out of tune? Thanks for the info. ROB Here is a link to the instructions for the Jard I have. http://media.midwayusa.com/pdf/instructions/Jard_AR_adjust_trigger.pdf |

Since the bottom of the hammer lob is not shaped to push the trigger slightly forward to keep the selector from being set to safe with the hammer uncocked, then yes, with the selector set to safe and the hammer uncocked, then selector is going to prevent the trigger from being able to be moved slightly forward for the hammer to be set to the trigger primary sear as well.
So racking the action back with the selector set to safe, and the hammer uncocked is not a wise choice as well. |
