FP60 blade trigger

Post by slofyr »

The o-ring trigger on the FP60 has never felt comfortable to me. Although I've been told that the Steyr LP10 trigger can be adapted, I decided to tinker a bit and come up with something simple that would not increase reach. K&S 7/32" round and 3/8" rectangular brass tubing from a hobby shop was used to make this with a Dremel cut-off disc, sandpaper, and a soldering iron. The flat brass is soft enough to form a mild curve without tools. Slitting the round tube allows it to slide snugly over the FP60's aluminum trigger shaft. The result gives up/down, swing, and blade rotation, and within the FP60's trigger pull range it does not slip after adjustment.

You have the patience of a...well, of a free pistol shooter, come to think of it.

Isn't it interesting that the LP10 shooter goes from blade to round trigger, and the FP60 shooter goes in the opposite direction?? Must be "horses for courses"?
