Review
My wife bought me the hammer and spring kit, for Christmas. More expensive than the parts I bought for my 365s, but brought the trigger pull weight down from 8# to 4 1/2#. Now, they need to engineer a new sear/hammer so that when you pull the trigger it is a true single action. Presently, when you pull the trigger on a LCP Max, you’re actually pushing the hammer back about 1/8” which is why you probably can’t get the trigger pull any better. I suppose the lawyers at Ruger thought it was a good idea
Ya make it easy. I have upgraded everything I have with MCarbo kits so I purchased everything for the LCP Max. With your videos it makes me feel like a gun smith which I am not.( started by ordering the wrong kit lcp2 so had to wait for correct trigger springs. 🧙???)... I also did some polishing inside and I think your polishing kit is a must do. So all good according to my finger, the trigger definitely lost weight and travel. Shoots noticeably smoother and seams to have better control. That's about as scientific as it gets.. Love it!, Get it... Note. Before the kit had the magazine fall out while shooting. Turns out my thumb would push the button. My fix, flip the button push to the other side, this works. A better solution might be to install MCarbo mag spring but im not fast anymore, just half fast so I got used to having release on right side... bottom line... thankful for MCatbo team for making my target getting sundays more enjoyable. Keep it going, need Ruger Mark IV lite trigger n spring kit...
Triggers in LCP’s were all atrocious until MCarbo came along. I tried one from a competitor that didn’t measure up. I just purchased the second one for my latest LCP, the 75th Anniversary edition, which has a much improved factory trigger but will still be replaced with an MCarbo. This trigger makes the diminutive pistol worth carrying.
I bought the trigger sprig kit, trigger shoe and heavy recoil spring. These items did stop the common trigger pinch on the LCP max but not a noticeable difference in perceived recoil and also little difference if any on trigger pull. The trigger is more crisp with a little less take up but it is still a heavy pull. Glock triggers are light in comparison.
Easy installation, fit and finish are flawless. Don't hesitate to upgrade your pistol, this takes all the slop and trigger bite out of the factory firearm.
The trigger is a night a difference between the stock one. Installation was a breeze. I’ve ran about a 100 rounds of just fmj, but it is clear that the MCarbo trigger allows the user to dial in the trigger to bring the lcp max to where it should be. Additionally, the company is very forward thinking in regards to customer care and the attention to detail of their products. Shipping, packaging of the product is on point. MCarbo sent an additional email of “How to videos” to assist with installation of the trigger as well as other products that can be used with the lcp line of pistols. After, I saw how professionally MCarbo responded to Galloway Precision on their forum, it was evident the company is ran by professionals, veterans. Again, great trigger and outstanding company.
What an improvement over stock finger pinching trigger .
This is the 2nd of the that I've bought. Love the look and the quality. They need to work on communication though. Never did get a tracking number even after I emailed about it. Showed up about a week later. Probably won't buy anything else from this company until they fix their problem.
Mechanically this is a very nice upgrade to the factory trigger. The installation video is clear and easy to understand. Customer service is lacking. When I purchased the trigger MCARBO was offering a "17.76%" off special. In all fairness, I did neglect to enter the discount code at checkout. However, within minutes I emailed MCARBO and reported my error, with the hope someone there would take care of it. A few days later I received a return email informing me the discount was no longer being offered. Yes, the initial mistake was mine. Considering I contacted customer service within minutes of placing the order I think they could have applied the discount to my order. MCARBO makes some nice products I really like, however I have serious reservations about future purchases.
The MCARBO trigger is a huge improvement over the stock Ruger trigger! I love that the pre travel is adjustable.
I replaced the trigger and springs included in the trigger spring kit. I also replaced the recoil rod and outer recoil spring with replacements from Mcarbo. Much better shooting weapon! I just fired 100 rounds with the modifications and did not have to put a Band-Aid on my finger!
I really really like the LCP Max. My ONLY complaint was that the trigger very often and quite painfully would pinch my finger on the bottom. MCarbo’s trigger feels really smooth & is made very well. But most importantly it DOESN’T PINCH. The adjustable reset is a nice perk as well but that wasn’t why I bought the trigger. The install video was too hurried without enough time to see what he was doing without going back &trying to pause it multiple times. The printed instructions SHOULD have had the complete install in clear pics. So, although I love the trigger, the video was sub-par and the printed version incomplete without the video……which, though very accurate, was just hurried through. Still give it an A
I put the trigger in my Ruger Max9 a few weeks ago and I loved it so much I had to get one for my LCP Max! I love these triggers and the adjustable take up is awesome. It definitely makes a world of difference from the factory triggers.
The MCarbo spring kit. While the trigger by itself is immeasurably better than the original, installing the spring kit with the MCarbo trigger makes the LCP what it should be.
Far better than the stock trigger and noticeably better than the other after market trigger that is available. Customizable, comfortable, and performed as advertised. This is well worth the upgrade and in my experience improved the performance of the firearm significantly. I replaced the trigger only.
The short stroke flat trigger clearly outperforms the original not only in smoothness and comfort, but it also eliminates the dreaded pinch. Installation was a breeze with the aid of the excellent video. I now have a superior upgrade for my once disappointing pistol.
