Review
I couldn't be happier with the kit or MCARBO. I installed this in my wifes Mossberg 500 20 gauge and wow what a big difference it made. Its not a 2lb rifle trigger by any means but it makes the gun so much nicer to shoot. This is a must have for any Mossberg owner.
Quality product at a very reasonable price. Install was fairly straightforward, following the video. Mine took a bit longer than expected. My disconnector was very different looking than the one in the video. Spring location was also different. Took me a bit to get it figured out. Overall a fantastic difference in the trigger after all was done. I highly recommend this kit for any Mossberg 88 owner. Thanks MCarbo!
The spring kit worked very well, highly recommended it. The video made the installation a snap. While installing the kit I found that the safety part was poorly machined and I was able to clean it up with a file. The safety on my gun always worked hard and after the installation and cleanup the safety works well. The spring kit is a great upgrade to the trigger feel.
I am amazed at how fast the order was processed and shipped. Installation was quick. About 30min from disassemble to reassembly. I ordered the wood dial and it is a great help. The video is a tremendous help with installation. Trigger pull is 4.5#. Great product. Will do business again.
I was having problems with the 500A Mossburge not firing every shot. Now, its firing ever shot and the trigger pull is wayless. This spring kit was just what I needed. The only thing I wish I have done was video or take pictures of before and after. VERY SATISFIED VERY HAPPY!
Highly recommend this trigger kit , and shell follower . A noticeable difference in trigger squeeze , and no more wobble from shells being shucked into the chamber . Had this 500 for almost 30 years , and put a LOT of deer and turkey in the freezer . Wish I had this trigger many years ago ... If you have trouble with the shell interrupter and stop falling out during final trigger assembly installation , put cotton balls in the front of the receiver , over the bolt and between the rails to hold them in place . The trigger assembly "should" slide in much easier .
Very smooth trigger now.
While I don't have a trigger pull gauge I can feel the improvement. The only issue I had during the install was keeping the trigger return spring from shooting through the hammer spring hole when getting it into its final resting spot. The trigger assembly tool I received was a hair to large to fit all the way into the hammer spring hole to help prevent this from happening!
M*Carbo, I just wanted to say great job! Ordering was simple, your communication after the order has been outstanding. You also sent a video link for the installation of the product so I could watch the installation before even getting the parts. Shipping was quick going across the country and the parts arrived in good shape. You will now be the first place I look to when needing parts in the future. Best Regards,
My Mossberg tigger was not resetting so I order the springs kit and tool. Glad I did, shotgun works much better and installed it my self, thanks.
My first time trying to modify the Mossberg 500 trigger and it was very easy following the youtube instruction from mcarbo. Just youtube "mcarbo trigger spring kit mossberg 500" and there was two good videos on how to disassemble and reassemble using regular tools and specialty tools, which I should've order to make it slightly easier. Overall, it was easy and I now have an average pull weight of 4.5 lbs.
I have a New Haven 600 that I hevily modified the stock and forearm wood with my dad's Army Ribbons from WWII, Korea,Vietnam, and some coins. I about wore it out at Meat Shoot competitions so I decided to rebuild it.I wound up using Maveric 88 reciever, 835 mag tube and barrel, then had to machine mag tube spacers to make the vintage forearm work. Then to top it off I used the trigger spring kit,Dammm this combo works great! the only thing that I would add to this kit is the tiny set screw that is needed to adjust trigger pre travel as most Mossbergs do not have one. Semper Fi, and keep up the good work
First i will say i am very happy with the product, however, i attempted to due the swap myself and ended up taking it to Williams Gun Sight to finish due to a mishap caused by video. There is a spot that says.... push this pin out... so i did. Parts flew everywhere.... Then the video says, oh first pull the trigger to release pressure..... ugh. Would have been helpful to have that step Prior to remove the pin step. Yes i could have watched the video first, but didnt.... regardless i put it back together and had no trigger.... something dislodged from its home when explosion of parts happened and i wasnt going to pretend to be a gunsmith any longer. So for the sake of others, please correct the video. Again love the product. Trigger is now a smidge over 5#
I installed this kit on a Shockwave. The factory trigger pull was 6# 10oz. After installing this kit the trigger pull dropped to 4# 12oz. I'm happy with that. Installation was a little tedious but not bad. A trick I found for reinstalling the trigger with the trigger spring was to first raise the hammer so the trigger+spring could be inserted w/o compressing the spring. Then lower the hammer to help hold it in place.
Ordered the trigger spring and it arrived fast. The spring cam before my trigger gauge. I used an analog gauge but I practiced with it to get a consistent pull direct and placement on the trigger. After checking the before the spring replacement and the after it dropped from a 6 to a 5 and is a smoother.
