Overall an improvement but not what I wanted
Overall, this along with the spring kit, has improved the trigger pull weight and reduced take-up and length of pull.
Still got a bit of slop in the side to side of the trigger but it’s better than the stick one.
Not a fan of the set screw for the take-up adjustment and with the loctite (as instructed) in place I hope it is never an issue.
For the price - I’m satisfied but would love to see slightly better improvements in the trigger slop side to side. This may be a Ruger issue however, so don’t fry me for those complaints.
Quick shipping and good email updates.
Do Not Buy
Do not buy this ruger max 9 trigger! This trigger constantly jams because of the safety feature getting caught on the frame, you will not be able to rapid fire more than 2 shots if you are lucky finger must be placed perfectly on the safety release or else will not shoot and jam. i had multiple people try and shoot my pistol with the same results just in case user error but mind you i am not a beginner and am a proficient shooter. I would not recommend this trigger especially for a concealed carry because if my life were in danger and i needed to rapid fire i would be dead. looks nice but function 0 out of 10
Most excellent
I've used the stock Ruger trigger and another after market trigger on my Max9. They were both anoying to my finger and resulted in poor groups. This M-carbo trigger is very comfortable for my finger and has resulted in far smaller groups and a happier finger. To be honest, I also had the spring kit installed as well as some parts pollished be M-carbo. All of which contributed to a vastlt improved pistol for me.
better than ruger stock
Great video on how to install springs/trigger. However, the trigger has a lot of travel and has side-to-side slop.
1 star for better than ruger; 1 star for the video. I'll be looking at the Maxxis trigger instead.
Great product !
Easy to install for anyone with moderate mechanical skills and the correct size punch. I actually used the supplied allen wrench to remove original trigger pin as I did not have a punch, a bit awkward but it worked. With that done the rest was a breeze.Looks and performs much better than original trigger. Most of pre travel gone, easier to insert finger and overall a big improvement.
Great kit
Way better than the factory trigger. With the spring kit pull weight is just under 3 lbs.
Max9 flat trigger
Excellent upgrade to my max 9. The install was fairly easy I polished all of the related components and the trigger pull is smooth and light. (I have not tested it with a trigger pull gauge) I think the trigger pull difference is noticeable enough. I’m very satisfied and recommend this product you’ll love it
Great trigger
The trigger is fantastic, 💯 better then the stock trigger. The stock trigger would bind when trying to press it from a draw. This trigger completely elminates that. It also feels so much better, the design, the feel of the press. With the adjustment it sets this trigger up perfectly.

Will this fit the California compliant model
Okay, I’m going to ask the same question that’s been asked before: Will this trigger work on the Calif model that has the Magazine Disconnect REMOVED? That’s what everyone one is asking, but the same answer keeps coming back: NOT WITH THE MAGAZINE DISCONNECT. The part that’s not being addressed is “will it work with the disconnect removed”. That wood make it same as any other Max 9 model.
Well, since no one seems to care there at MCarbo, I took my business elsewhere. You might get more customers if you really cared about them…….
I just installed the trigger and spring kit mods. No problem with the installation. However, no matter how I adjust the trigger set screw, I don't see any real difference. Did I do something wrong?
Is it possible to use the trigger without the set screw? The thought of it backing out on a carry firearm and possibly disabling the trigger does not sit too well.
Yes it is! The set screw is optional.
Will this fit a lc9s/ec9s?
November 21, 2023 2:51 PM
No, this trigger only works for the Max 9's.
Will it work on the MAX9 CA model if the magazine disconnect is removed?
It should. The trigger is for all models of the Ruger Max 9
