Thanks guys great trigger I like it a lot over stock thanks for everything
Just got my Ruger LCP II trigger and spring kit today. I did the swap. I started off with a 5-pound pull from the factory; I ended up with 5, and sometimes even higher, with your kit. No change in feel. Could I have gotten the wrong spring kit? Pre travel help a little about 40% definitely nowhere near 80% and the scew is almost all the way out i did the trigger 3 times because I wanted to make sure that I didn't put the stock spring back in on an accident. No difference, your kit is a little heavier
This Mcarbo trigger is excellent quality. I love the adjustability. It was easy to install with the Video provided!!
Like the aluminum design, rather than plastic or mim. Use more finger tip on this trigger to avoid the nasty bite from the original trigger. Much less from this one. Along with the spring kit made it easier to get better groups, more enjoyable to shoot. Have only 2- 3 hundred rounds after upgrades, no problems.
Don't know which of these parts are great, but the conbination is fantastic for the LCP Max. No longer get trigger bite, and the action is light and super smooth. Makes shooting the LCP more than just tolerable and makes me more accurate. Great combination of products.
With all the upgrades, it significantly improved the pistol. IMO use the 12lb spring, the 10lb one is too light for carry and doesn't feed all types of ammo. The 12lb spring gave me an average trigger pull in the mid-4lb range. The upgraded trigger can be set to have almost no travel, which was my issue with the stock gun. It also has a more noticeable reset than the stock trigger. It eliminates the annoying metallic "ping" sound when dry firing as well. From a non-gunsmith (but someone who tinkers) the video provided by this company is easy to follow. Make sure you buy the correct loctite and punches before disassembling the gun though. Just spend the extra money and get everything, feels like a pro tuned performance center gun now. Also, if you are replacing the recoil spring, make sure to put the original INNER spring back into the gun. The stock gun uses 2 recoil springs and the upgrade is only the outer spring.
I tried a competitors trigger on my LCP Max and wasn’t thrilled with the results. Pistol was barely useable. I installed all the MCARBO parts available for the pistol. Now I can actually shoot it. It’s now a great little back up pocket pistol.
Trigger not worth the money,you have to spend more money for the spring kit to make any differents. Still only dropped pull weight from 7 to 5.5 pounds.
This trigger is amazing! It's smooth and very quiet as compared to the stock trigger. I highly recommend it!
After trying another brand of replacement trigger only having it to fail after less than 50 rounds I decided to try this one to try and eliminate the blood blister I kept getting on my trigger finger. I had mine installed by a very competent gunsmith. After my last practice I'm sitting here with a bandaid on my finger. Imho you're better off staying with the stock trigger as it does the same thing. No gunsmithing fees for something that offers no improvement.
Try to imagine the sick feeling of an everyday carry gun that can only shoot one or two bullets before it jams and is hard to clear. That is the state of my Ruger LCP Max after installing the M*Carbo trigger, spring kit, takedown pin, guide rod, and recoil spring. I used the 10lb spring. I followed the videos very carefully. I used all the right tools, and dry firing is smooth. It is more accurate than before, but out of 9 attempted rounds, 3 failed to load all the way into the chamber, and one was seated in the chamber, but the hammer was not cocked. I had to drop the mag to clear the three that jammed on the ramp.
I tried another company’s replacement trigger and my LCP Max was still beating my finger to hell. Thought about selling it but gave the MCARBO a shot and it’s like a whole new pistol. Much more pleasant to shoot.
The stock trigger and springs measured 7 1/4 lbs. The M carbo trigger and spring kit brought the trigger pull down to 3 lbs 14 oz. No longer jerking the shots low and left. No light strikes with the 12 lb hammer spring.
Since I purchased ,and had installed, the trigger and spring kit - I don't know which was responsible for the excellent results ! Comfortable and much easier to shoot accurately with these products installed.
After having the trigger and trigger spring kit installed my 380 Max preformed like a completely different pistol. No more trigger bite and lighter pull. The slide no longer rattles around. Reccomend.
Recently obtained a Ruger LCP 75th Anniversary Model LCP Max and took it to the range for 300 rounds of FMJ and a box of Hornaday Critical Defense as a break-in. Installed the MCARBO Guide Rod, Heavy Recoil Spring and Take-Down Pin before going. Had several hang ups with the trigger dingus and a tiny blister on the edge of my trigger finger (wah-wah). Had bought every upgrade for the pistol from MCARBO before I even got the gun, wise move. The following day after having made sure I was happy with the pistol I installed the new Trigger Package and Spring Kit. What a difference it made! The dingus is vastly improved as is the trigger itself, VERY comfortable to pull the trigger now while dry firing(didn't even affect my teeny blister), the travel is smooth as it gets with better take-up and reset breaks like a glass rod. I used the 12lb Spring and it's very light for my liking. I couldn't be happier with the outcome of these upgrades from less than an hours effort, including cleaning. The Videos MCARBO have posted make installation easy to perform and flawless in their performance. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND adding these quality MCARBO parts (all of them) to the Ruger LCP Max, it will take a great little pocket pistol to another level.
