I ordered the above spring kit www.falconarms.com last Wednesday morning for my new DSA Tac Carbine that had a factory 10 1/2 pound trigger pull. The kit was delivered USPS on Friday. I was blown away by how fast I got it. I put it in Friday night. It was a piece of cake. I took the rifle back to the gun shop and had the trigger pull remeasured. It was now between 7 and 7 /12 pounds. It's still not quite where I would like it, but the spring kit was well worth the money. It dropped the pull by 3 pounds for only $14.50. I shot the rifle on Sunday and it worked flawlessly. It was also much easier to shoot with the lighter trigger. If you have an FAL, I cannot reccomend Falcon Arms and their spring kit highly enough.

If you shoot surplus ammo, think twice before dropping in that light hammer spring. Everything else should be fine though. I get 20% failure to fire with the light hammer spring. I half cock and refire and the round fires the second time. Surplus = hard primers. Factory ammo is fine for me though but I want it to shoot reliably with ANYTHING I throw in it. |

Had my SA-58 trigger measured at the gun shop locally... The markings on the scale stop at 8 pounds... my FAL was still pulling the scale back. I estimate it to be around 10 pounds, probably more. I will be ordering the springs this Friday... 10+ is too much no matter how you look at it. Rmpl

All thats left is a simple trigger job to get rid of the creep. Bill [email protected] |

Is there any information on how to install the damn thing? Not a single instruction in the kit, just prings and a card full of warnings. I'm a little pissed they can't be bothered to explain the installation. ETA: Never mind! I found the info here and I'm done already. Wow! What a difference! |
| A easy fix for lite strikes on primers is to take out the firing pin spring and grind of 2 coils. this alows the pin to travel a little farther forward. Port primers a famous for hard primers and out of thousands of rounds fired of surplus I have never had a FTF from a lite strike. |

I have been able to get a really sweet 4lbs, very short, smooth pull from an FAL with these springs. I ought to keep a few in stock for people needing trigger work. Bill [email protected] |

I installed one of these kits, along with a little stoning and polishing of a few surfaces. I'd rate the result as very good, and a very noticeable improvement of the OEM unit. What would I call excellent? The Milazzo-Krieger trigger on my AR, and the NM trigger on my SM M1A. |
