Hands down the BEST UPGRADE for your Hellcat Pro!

[@GotGammage]

Brooo, you get two for flinching when that missal hit you lol 😂 - keep me posted if you haven’t found screws yet, I can bring some later this week. I’ve found the 4-40’s work well. Though thin, they hold well. Just let me know, Brudda. PS: I’m betting that trigger weight is closer to 2.8 - 2.12

[@jayweth]

Yea I haven't found screws in my workbench I may need to buy a multipack

[@jayweth]

I bet it'll get there overtime with break in. It's pretty decent now.

[@HighCappa45]

Also a tip, I put co-witness marks on my optic screws with a paint market to tell if they back out at all.

[@jayweth]

Smart idea!

[@HighCappa45]

Mcarbo is an awesome company and customer service is awesome. Recently broke a Mcarbo trigger spring in a CZ less then 200 rounds. They refunded my money and also sent me a free trigger kit. Switched to a lighter CZ custom spring. Cause I just can’t trust it for carry with the Mcarbo spring without further testing. Another awesome video 🤙🏼

[@jayweth]

Thanks man these are good insights and I appreciate the support.

[@jeffreyblackman5430]

i've gone through threat shooting where you're in complete darkness and see "good guys" and "bad guys" and get another gun halfway through the course. The gun I got halfway through ended up being a revolver. Was shooting a colt 1911 to start and a revolver to finish. Never noticed the trigger pull differences due to the stress. In my humble opinion....people spend way too much time lightening triggers.

[@jayweth]

@@jeffreyblackman5430 this sounds like a really cool training. Well done. 👍🏻

[@mikechurchill1071]

Did you see the whole titanium striker upgrade and not just the spring and sleeve? MCarbo striker is fluted and lighter and it's got a better angle where the sear and striker meet so it breaks easier and overall less mass to reciprocate. It made a huge difference. Then I have the apex shoe and sear spring with the PRP CNC machined sear, saftey plunger, plunger spring, disconnector and disconnector spring. The disconnector turned it into a bit of a rolling break but it's at 3lbs and crisp like glass. The PRP shoe and MCarbo shoe are supposed to reduce the pre travel of the trigger. The MCarbo has a set screw and a tool to adjust the reset and take up. Love the channel and what Magwell is that?

[@jayweth]

@@mikechurchill1071 thanks for this info. Love hearing about other options for similar builds. Might want to change some things on mine. The magwell is from Floyd's custom shop.

[@bradleymadrid2877]

i also put my holosun on with just the loctite from factory with my ch precision plate and after shooting just a couple mags it was very loose. cleaned threads added my own loctite and it has been solid

[@jayweth]

@@bradleymadrid2877 smart. I may do that for sure.

[@dtfrankel79]

Have you checked out the Hellcat Pro Comp yet? Looks to be pretty sweet! If I wasn't dead set on getting a Shadow Systems MR920P, I'd DEFINITELY consider the HC Pro Comp.

[@jayweth]

I've looked into it. I've had some experience with front end porting/comps and the benefit is it brings the gun down faster but the recoil is still felt more than inline porting (like I have). I prefer softer feeling recoil rather than the comp. I hear it's still better than the xmacro comp

[@aura_daddy]

im in cali so its not available for me. gonna send my pro in to get an aftermarket port

[@jayweth]

@@aura_daddy do it!

@CutTheKam GOD, Bro!!! HOW in God's name can you stand that shit?? Move here to TN! Pretty much ZERO gun restrictions (we have open & Constitutional carry), lower taxes (no state income tax, only 9.75% sales tax to deal with), after, better college football (SEC! 😁). C'mon in, the water's fine!

[@thomastometich6767]

Isnt the apex trigger kit really just the shoe and two springs, so basically just the springs from Apex being used with the new trogger shoe?

[@jayweth]

@@thomastometich6767 no this is the mcarbo kit and it's more than just springs. But it's using the apex shoe.

[@angelballi1154]

Great video! Are you using the sear spring from the apex trigger kit or from the mcarbo?

Where did you get the mag well from? Thanks for the video it was very helpful

[@jayweth]

Magwell is from Floyd's customs

[@navyvet7138]

I just bought a magwell and mag extension from Floyds and it works great

[@jayweth]

@@navyvet7138 awesome!

[@djorig]

I put the monarch trigger shoe on my HC Pro. The stock trigger pull weight didn’t change.

[@jayweth]

@@djorig yea the mcarbo kit changes it a ton.

[@ChanceRoss-z1n]

where’d you get the stippling done on the grip? would love to do that to mine, like the look of it way better.

[@travis11231]

So did you use apex springs and apex trigger with m carbo striker and striker spring?

[@jayweth]

@@travis11231 that's exactly right

[@travis11231]

@@jayweth ok cool

[@brucecook502]

I have a question. So when you initially installed the Apex Trigger, was it just the trigger you installed or did you get the entire Apex enhancement kit that came with its own Sear and Striker spring?

[@jayweth]

@@brucecook502 mine was just the trigger only. No sear or anything.

[@Mr50stacks]

Do laser blade crown the barrel

[@jayweth]

I believe they can do that. They are a 1 stop shop for anything you want, cerakote, stipple, slide milling, optic cuts and more.

[@buzzsaw161]

trigger pull should never go below 4 pounds in my opinion when carrying

[@jayweth]

if thats your preference thats cool. i make sure to train with my carry options well before they are actually being carried regularly. almost all of my pistols are under 4 pounds in some manner. But I respect your level of caution and agree that most people should be wise with their trigger pull weights.

[@brianmartinez7530]

I prefer DAO with the gun pointed at my junk, lol

[@BrianEthridge-wg6ko]

Yeah I think the only reason you would want it less would be for like competitions I have three hellcats one regular one and two pros with threaded barrels and I never even thought to gripe about the trigger They all shoot great especially the ones that are compensated with a muzzle breaker

[@mikechurchill1071]

I have to agree that I prefer a trigger that is lighter and I carry my hellcat pro with a sub 4 pound trigger for 2 years now. It's not how light the trigger is it's how you train with it. If the trigger is safe even a 2/2.5 pound trigger can be carried as in some 2011s with very light triggers. Striker fired guns are basically DAO with no hammer. Keep your finger off the trigger when you draw.

[@JD-ed1uq]

Until you actually have to use your gun and self-defense in the county attorney says that you messed with the safety features of the pistol that could be used against you in court. Most lawyers say use completely stock weapon for self-defense even preferably what the police use as their duty pistol​@@jayweth

[@lenzielenski3276]

Why is it that anyone can buy a trigger gauge, but virtually no one knows how to use one? You pull once parallel to the line of the bore. Period. Any variance is the fault of the user so use proper technique and do it right the first time.

[@jayweth]

@@lenzielenski3276 are you the trigger gauge subject matter expert? Link me your videos so I can learn from you.

[@lenzielenski3276]

@@jayweth Sarcasm noted. Please read the instruction manual. rtFM, works every time. Next lesson, how to use a torque wrench. Same principle applies, applying torque off axis results in inaccurate measurements.
