Re: Benelli MP95E Trigger

Interesting. I purchased 3 and all were unthreaded. As to my safety lever removal, that didn't go well at all. Just short of stripping them I did the heat application thing to no avail. Ended up drilling the screw heads to get the lever out of the housing but there's no putting it back into the new ...

Re: Benelli MP95E Trigger

Yep, the soldering iron method was going to be my next attempt but at this point it isn't a priority. As far as the self-tapping part, those things went in smooth as butter and didn't require a lot of extra force to get installed. Didn't feel like they were overstressing the housing going in. Once i...

Re: Benelli MP95E Trigger

OK, an update. I ordered three replacement MP95 Atlanta trigger housings from Red Feather. After inspecting and comparing the new housings along with a lot of consternation and contemplation of worse-case scenarios, I started punching pins and unscrewing screws out of the original housing, being car...

Re: Benelli MP95E Trigger

Benelli USA currently provides no support for the pistols. If you can wait a bit, I can at least provide a tapping guide that can be 3D printed. That would make it pretty trivial for a gunsmith to fix, especially if I can figure out the threadlocker situation. I've got four that exploded over the p...

Re: Benelli MP95E Trigger

Drilling and tapping tiny little screws? In a trigger assembly? Puts it well beyond my "armorer" (parts replacer) classification and approaching "gunsmith". Maybe I'll call Benelli "customer service", see what they have to offer. That has only been marginally successful...

Benelli MP95E Trigger

Just found this forum. Years on RimfireCentral and Benelli forums but neither particularly helpful with the MP95E/MP90 family. Larry's was always my go-to for questions, parts, etc. Wish I had known about this one. Probably would have saved me my current grief. As noted as a possibility in a number ...
