thanks to Rolandag I’ll use his pictures as ref. Hammerfire is correct. “So, I will need to have a heavier detent spring, or a lighter "F" bar spring to get a more tension on the safety detent” t
The disconnect spring is fighting the safety spring. I shortened the disconnect spring 2-3 coils and it’s good. Brownells sells a spring kit y Wolf that has options if you mess it up. Guess how I know…. You need to hold just right or place a piece of frog tape over the right side of the fire control group or it’ll drop out. Even if disconnect bar is slightly loose the safety physically holds it down in safer disconnect position. The spring that hold the trigger bar up, nicely keeps it in the full up position if you go a coil too far. Next step would be to slightly change the ramp angle inside the left side safety lever where it rides in the safety flat spring. A stiffer flat spring will make engaging the safety more difficult. I’ll look at the later option this weekend if you care to see. Great design, poorly executed. I wrote my first post on this yesterday. I’m very happy with the gun now but many won’t be. I hope they didn’t fumble so big that sales never recover. I see them for $469 now. Take Care and be safe.
