Help....Trigger Problems

[Gooch]

I After routine cleaning of my 05 angel speed I reassembled it and attempted to fire it. The trigger doesn't seem to want to return to the original position. The marker works perfectly but I have to manually return the trigger to its original position. Help please!!!!

This sounds like a similar problem I had when experimenting with the magnets. My problem was that when I put the trigger back down in the grip frame, I misplaced it so the metal toe on the back of the trigger was slightly off and wasn't following the correct path of travel. Thinking I had accidently bent it out of shape, I went about bending it either up or down in order to fit it correctly where it should. Sometimes the trigger wouldn't move all the way back and some times after pulling it back it would get stuck and refuse to return. What was really odd was that sometimes it would cause the gun to fire on the return of the trigger instead of the pull. This was a long process of trial and error as I would have to put the trigger back in the frame and completely reassemble it to test it. Eventually I got right though. Just becareful because you don't want to damage the opto board or the sensor that reads the movement of the toe. Just some info, I hope it helps.

Another thing you can try. If you remove the trigger and rotate the mounting shaft in the bearings. Find the spot in rotation that it is the best swing. Drop it back in and snug your mounting screws. See if the swing improves. A little light oil (WD 40) in the bearings helps.

Thanks for the help. I had to bend the metal piece that goes between the sensors to get it to work. I took for ever to get it right though. Anyways thanks for the help.
