Do you have a step-by-step on that procedure?

The overtravel limiter works, but not spectacularly. And either of the two would have saved a lot of hand fitting. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Thu Dec 10, 2009 4:52 pm Crosman140 Senior Member Joined: 13 Dec 2008 Posts: 663 Location: USA Slavia wrote: It was me: http://www.airgunhome.com/agforum/viewtopic.php?t=1760&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45 Looking back on it I think either the GRT-III or the GTX-II would have been better.

Wow I looked more thoroughly through your post and I'm thinking that $32 is money worth the spending on the GRT. Thanks for the quick reply. I'll be looking to Charlie and his trigger. _________________ My Critter Gitters .22 Crosman 140 (1955) .177 Crosman G1 (2009) .177 Crosman 1377 (2009) .177 Daisy 880 (2019) BB Daisy Red Ryder (2012) BB Daisy Buck (2019) BB Crosman 1600 (1980) BB Marksman 1010 (1979)   Posted: Thu Dec 10, 2009 11:23 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6930 Location: "Out There" Go to Airguns of Arizona and get the GTX II trigger, not the copy. _________________ ` I'd say "I care."

So, is there someone else out there with a GTX II trigger, or are you talking about the GRT III trigger as being a copy? It gets funky, but the GRT III is technically the "copy". The GTX II is manufactured by, and sold to AofA by the original designer.

Wow, what a rediculous, childish battle going on out there. I'm just looking for a good trigger. It's like buying a computer...a person better buy a genuine IBM, because any other PC is just a copy of the original design. Not really my cup of tea. I find a product I like and I buy it. All the arguments and stories out there are none of my business. One thing I did find in all my research is that one company offers as much help as you want...the other has basically no customer service. I'm tearing apart my gun...something I'm no expert on...in fact, I'll be doing it for the first time when I buy a trigger...and if I am having a problem, I want to be able to go to the company I bought the product from and ask questions and get help. I haven't bought yet, and I suppose when I do I just won't say where I bought it as probably no matter who that is (AofA or Char), someone out there will find fault with them and tell me I should have bought from the other guy. _________________ My Critter Gitters .22 Crosman 140 (1955) .177 Crosman G1 (2009) .177 Crosman 1377 (2009) .177 Daisy 880 (2019) BB Daisy Red Ryder (2012) BB Daisy Buck (2019) BB Crosman 1600 (1980) BB Marksman 1010 (1979)   Posted: Fri Dec 11, 2009 10:35 am AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6930 Location: "Out There" I can't say "childish" or not to the argument- I have no idea who/what has been posted where. Putting all that aside, one is a copy, one is not. Which, theoretically at least, would only bother me slightly- if it weren't for the fact the "copy" has been trying to represent itself as the genuine article. Personally I hate rewarding the people who seem to be misrepresenting the product. Kinda leaves one to wonder why anyone should design something, build it and then get the short end of the stick ultimately. Obviously, people can buy whatever/from whoever they like- but let's not confuse someone who talks a good talk with the genuine article. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

I think whichever way you go you'll find it was easier than you had imagined. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!
