Review
I posted the review less than an hour ago and MCarbo customer services has already addressed my broken firing pin. That is service! I'm submitting a second review as a 4 star due to the prompy warranty assistance. The striker still broke, but MCarbo is standing by their warranty without any hassles.
Solves the problem with the hellcat trigger and made of the best materials with the best quality of any other trigger on the market
The installation videos are very helpful installing the trigger and and new striker/springs. Trigger pull decreased from 6.5lbs to 5.5 lbs. Not a very big decrease, but coupled with the improved trigger, I believe it will feel lighter than it is.
admittedly, it took me longer to install the trigger/striker than they guy on the video (2 hours), but I got it done! very smooth pull on the trigger now, and with the adjustable play I could almost get it to match my Sig . Thanks guys!
I ordered the complete kit it was very easy to install and the video made it a breeze I would highly recommend these products are great and work great.
I have been hunting, shooting in competition, and working on guns for over 65 years. I have instlled parts and kits from all of the after market manufacturers for Springfield, Smith & Wesson, CZ, etc.. This kit for the Hellcat is the best I have worked with. With this kit and a litllle polishing I got a 3 1/2 pound trigger pull--it is a thing of beauty. I love the fixture provided for setting up the take-up before installation. Great instructions and videos.
Much crisper break. Very smooth clean take out I have mine set with almost no extra travel. This is the perfect trigger to make the Hellcat Pro live up to its potential. Also the customer service was spot on. Will be a future customer.
Love the feel and pull of the trigger over the stock one. Had a friend try it out and after that first shot they just looked back at me and said "that trigger feels amazing", That's enough to confirm my feelings about it. The whole kit was easy to install I've never dismantled a weapon except for rifle cleaning in the military, so to swap parts out this easily anyone can do it if they take their time. Glad I went with this over the APEX A+
Have used Mcarbo Trigger Kits several times, can't say enough, every kit has made a huge difference in Trigger pull as well as a smooth trigger. they also suggest what parts you could polish, never needed customer support because the video's are excellent, If you never took a gun apart all you need to watch is a Mcarbo Video, ...Excellent Product and Installation Video's (you can read the instructions but the video's are so much more informant)
Very pleased with this Hellcat Pro factory trigger upgrade. It is not cheap but cost is very fair for the quality of the parts. Got a chance to try the APEX kit and feel the MCarbo is far superior. Trigger reset is greatly improved, no more creep, and pull went from 6 to 4 lbs. Did not use the sear spring mainly due to fear of going below 4 lbs for the pull. No reliability issues so far. Install was easy, especially with the videos but be aware that you might have to turn the striker assembly cups to install in at least the Pro model.
In researching aftermarket triggers for the hellcat pro, I found 2 that were most commonly mentioned, this and 1 other. This one however, is available in the full kit with the striker as well, so it made sense (to me) to choose this. I have changed plenty of AR triggers, but never a pistol before, and following the video on the product page made this pretty easy. There were a couple small details that he could have done better, but I design instructional videos for a living, so I'm a tough critic. The quality of the striker is definitely obvious over the factory one, and the trigger is a huge improvement as well: Shorter take up, crisper break, lighter pull weight, shorter reset, plus adjustability to customize. As long as this stands the test of time and use, I don't see any negatives on this.
I purchased the Hellcat bundle in March. I was told the striker was on back order, I inquired about the bundle several times and Mcarbo folks told me they expected the striker soon. I was told that I could get the rest of the bundle and Mcarbo would send me the striker when it was available. I took that option. The parts came in about a week, I watched the video and installed all the springs and the striker sleeve. There was no video on the trigger replacement, so I watched another products trigger replacement. I was able to complete the trigger install. I then read, the comments section of Mcarbo’s Hellcat trigger section and followed the directions by Randell B to set the trigger set screw. I am impressed with the improved performance of my hellcat. I look forward getting the titanium striker. Dave B
Easy to follow video installation. The lighter trigger pull made the pistol more stabile (4.5 lbs.) and groups were better. Definitely recommend this product to improve the gun.
I recently purchased the hellcat pro assembly kit and Boy am I glad I did! The wait for backorder was the only thing was wasn't favorable but install was easy. Customer service was absolutely amazing! I would order again and again! Install took around 30 minutes would have been less was I not triple checking everything I did with the video. If you are looking for an upgrade you found it the stock trigger had a lot of travel and creep and this trigger eliminates almost all of that as well as dropping the trigger pull from the stock almost 7 lbs to the 3.75 to 4lb. I instantly noticed a difference. I would Highly recommend this product and trust me the wait for backorder is so worth it once you see the quality and craftsmanship. Thank you MCarbo for the amazing product I will be coming back when I do any more upgrades!
made my hellcat pro even better than before. has a crisp metal trigger now instead of a plastic trigger.
WOW! AMAZING! This kit, along w the polish kit is incredible! My Hellcat Pro has been transformed to an ultimate carry pistol! A recent novice, left the shooting sports 20 years ago and returned this summer. I was able to follow the video’s, do a polish job and replace my trigger, springs, and striker. My concealed accuracy improved immediately! I highly recommend this product!
