“Apparently you’ve not had the pleasure off changing out a trigger group in a Ruger 22/45 pistol. You’re in for a real treat.”

I DID THIS.

When the instructors tell you that you need to flex the muscle on your thumb under the snuffbox in order to properly align the springs... you’re in for a treat.

I put that damned thing together 22-45 times before I got it right. And it fits together. It just doesn’t work unless specific lateral forces are on the spring too.

Once it’s together right, it won’t knock out of place but my god. It wasn’t gunsmithing. It was surgery.

Yes. I remember it well. Like root canal without benefit of anesthesia.
