Good night. I have a question about gun Morini CM 162 MI. Having implemented the security measures and seeing the face behind the gun trigger two screws. On the right is to increase or decrease the weight that pulls the trigger but for serving the screw on the left? What happens if I turn?, What effect does the trigger or firing mechanism?

I greatly appreciate it explained in a clear way and I do not understand their function.

Thanks for the info

If you don't have the manual, you can download it here as a PDF:

If you look closely at the springs hooked to the blocks above the screws, you will notice that as the first stage is taken up, only the left spring stretches. Once the first stage is taken up, then the spring on the right also adds some tension for the second stage. The ISSF rules require at least 500 gm trigger force, and these two springs allow you to set some of that in the first stage and the rest in the second.

I bought mine used from a very good shooter and he had it set so that most of the weight was taken up in the first stage. He shoots a lot better than I do, so I left it like that.

However, some good shooters remove the first stage entirely (which you can do with screw #1, Fig 3 in the manual) so that a steady increase in pressure results in a break without the trigger moving until the end.

The Morini is a sweet gun. Good luck with it!
