I ordered the kit and supplies from MCARBO to do a trigger job on my Ruger SP101 4” 357 magnum. I have no gunsmithing experience, but with this video and the great products from MCARBO, I was able make an incredible improvement in my stock firearm. The trigger pull is SOOO much better, and as an added benefit, I now know my revolver inside and out.

[@44hawk28]

I just ran across the video. I used to do these quite a bit some years ago. Only one word of caution, be very cognizant all of the accuracy, especially a double-action both before and after you do this work. I found it when I put the everspring from my kit, this was some years ago when it was a slightly different design as a security six however that part of the mechanism has not changed. I found that in double-action my groups actually got about twice as large, that was an effect of the firing pin not hitting the primers hard enough to make them ignite consistently. I ended up going back to the original Hammer, still had a dead smooth trigger, a little bit more weight, but I had actually done the work down to a 20 oz single action pull and about a six and a quarter pound electrical. But I also learned that as you're squeezing the trigger and double-action the tip of your finger will contact frame just before the fire alarm goes off. After that you can take close aim, and then squeeze off the round as if it's single-action. I was able to shoot my security 6 into a 4-inch group at a hundred yards. It was a superbly accurate Ruger. And that was on Double Action. I don't think I ever shot that firearm more than four five times and single action after I did that trigger job. As for what he's calling Birds, I don't know if he's ever seen what an actual Burr is, but I am far more burrs on Smith & Wesson is than I ever did on ruger's

[@cbroz7492]

I changed the springs onmySP101s and Speed Six...BIG difference...

[@philhicks2167]

Would you elaborate more on the accuracy you had after the change of springs. What caliber was it? I am planning on getting a sp101 in .22lr but want all the accuracy I can get out of it. Thank You for a reply.

Just got my kit today, watched your video and followed each and every step through the entire video. The trigger on my SP101 is smooth as glass and has a much easier trigger pull. Don't have a pull scale to check the trigger pull but I can definitely feel the difference. Very nice. Happy camper here. Love my SP101! Thank you

[@adams2922]

This is an EXCELLENT how-to video and I can't thank you enough for this invaluable resource. You made it fun and have a perfect presentation style. My first time doing anything like this without screwing it up royally and having to have a gunsmith bail me out. Using the MCarbo spring and trigger job kit and this video, my GP100 stainless 6" 6-shooter went from stock gritty 10lb DA, 3.5 lb SA using my analog Timney trigger gauge to 8lb DA, 2.7lb SA. But those numbers don't even begin to do the results justice. It is an understatement to say the action is buttery smooth. O. M. G.! Thank you so much for what you guys do and for serving our country and keeping me free.

[@mschou]

Got this kit from a supplier in Denmark. Installed it on my Ruger GP100. Amazing difference. I hand polished everything though. Took a good amount of time. My GP100 is like a totally different revolver. Thank a bunch for the amazing video. 👍👍👍

[@TheCdunbar1989]

Just completed by M-Carbo kit install and internal polish - exactly as desribed here. I am very suprised and pleased with the quality of the kit and the results. I used Mothers polish and flushed with brake cleaner, finished off with the supplied grease and Seal-1. This kit and process resulted in a 4.8 lb trigger pull! M-Carbo just made a customer for life - highly recommend this kit!!

I ordered mine last night for my sp101. Just received it in the mail today. 3/9/2021. Had the gun already disassembled and polishing was done. I didn’t need to shim the trigger as I could only get .003 in there snug. I did add a .005 on each side of the hammer though. Assembly was great following the video. Trigger pull now is just under 5 lbs! Great job MCARBO!!!!! Quality product.

Thank you M-Carbo...now this revolver is a great carry gun and a great shooter.

It's so nice to watch one of these instructional videos with someone that actually knows what they're talking about. Great vid.

Many high-view vids are amateur blathering. Won't name any names but his initials are salbarajas.

[@davidmoran7827]

I've done 2 of these now and I love it. The double action trigger pull goes from heavy and gritty to light and smooth. You get the durability of the Ruger with a "Smith & Wesson" like trigger pull. I didn't even need to use the trigger shims on this last one because the fit was great but I used all the hammer shims. The trickiest part for me is getting the trigger assembly installed back into the body. Always lots of cussing and annoyance on my side even though you made it look easy in the video. The root cause (for anyone else stuck) for me was that in the handle, where that trigger spring assembly goes in was rough and it didn't want to seat all the way. Some people "clean that hole out a little" and others recommending tapping gently with a rubber mallet. The gentle tapping worked for me and finally got the trigger assy seated properly. If it doesn't seat all the way, your trigger won't pull all the way back.

[@ctusser]

Even though I didn’t order their kit, this video was really helpful in disassembling and polishing my trigger components.

[@macdaddysarizonaadventures9663]

Bought the kit. Have their springs in other firearms. This was my first wheel gun action job. I could not have done it without the video. The kit and video are great. The results are night and day to SP101. The shims really helped and took out all the side to side play in the action. used all 4 on trigger and just 2 on the hammer. I do not have a gauge but am sure my D. A trigger pull went from 10 pounds and harsh down to 5 lb. range and very smooth. Of course this is favorite firearm now. Thanks guys.

[@richardevans9530]

From a gritty 9.5 to silky smooth 4.5! Amazing!

[@SaboSells]

Found the exploded view, did the entire mod and polished the whole gun while I was at it. I've owned this gun for 25 years and it's never been this nice, it's like a New Gun now!

[@4freedom3per]

Just received my kit for my GP100 .357 5". Whoa what a difference! DA started out at ++10lbs, it literally maxxed out my trigger gauge! SA was @ 4lbs. Utilizing Mothers Mag polish I had, DA is a solid 7lb and SA is now 3.5! Action is butter compared to the gritty stock condition. Just ordered another kit for my SP101 22lr. Thank you MCarbo!!

[@racertrader]

Just finished the polishing and upgrade...smooth as "butter". Thanks MCarbo

[@theheathen1516]

This video was very helpful with using the gp100 polish kit and spring/shim kit i bought from you, and your customer service was exceptional. I will admit i put the factory springs back in as i find i like the heavier pull for every day use, but just the polish and shims made it noticeably smoother and did remove about a pound from the trigger pull.

[@peteshour768]

This is the best video I have seen yet! This is a Armoror level instruction video. Thank you.

[@oneshoeless]

Thank you this video an awesome job! I'll be ordering a spring kit and shims once I shoot my GP100 for bit. The directions and how to polish the parts took me from "can't measure on the scale" to a very smooth 7.5# pull. With another 500 to 1k rounds, a second polish job and shims, this drop the pull even more. Thank you.

[@richardvila1173]

This is the BEST trigger job I have seen till today in KZbin. You where very specific in your explanations. I was enjoying also your level of excitement as you were explaining to us the procedure. Planning to do the same to my Ruger GP 100 Match Champion 357 Magnun. Liked and subscribed!

[@steenandcompany]

Ruger GP 100 7 shot 3579 I bought this gun to change up some competition matches and the trigger pull was amazingly difficult compared to my other competition guns (this is also my first wheel gun). Just completed the polish and installation of the kit. WOW is all I can say! My girl could not pull the stock trigger in double action mode. Now she has no problem at all! By her own admission she is a "wuss". He is not kidding, it is like butter. I have a couple more revolvers in my future for Concealed carry purposes and they will be getting the same treatment. Thank MCARBO.

[@JayS-ki8sp]

Just completed the job on my new GP 100 357 and totally satisfied with the results. Followed your excellent video and did the polishing along with the springs & shims. Had a decent trigger out of the box at 8lbs 9 oz for DA and 2lbs 14 oz SA. Now have a very smooth DA 6lbs 13 oz and 2lb 3 oz SA. Haven't range tested it yet, but assuming she fires I'm a very satisfied customer. Thanks.

Awesome video, meticulous attention to detail. Can’t wait to see if I get same results with my work on my sp101. Thanks for video.

[@earldoty8176]

Most likely the best DIY video I've ever seen. I did have a suggestion/comment about my GP100 that differed from the vid: First, there was no corresponding hole in the back strap so was unable to use a punch to depress the trigger latch pin for removal. I improvised, using a random pegboard hook with a suitable 90 degree end. Second, the hole for that plunger/spring assembly was considerably smaller than 1/4" so I used a #7 drill bit (.201") for burr removal. Then it required a #16 drill bit (.177") with one of your handy, 1.000-grit sandpaper squares wrapped around it to polish the hole. No tape was required as I pinched the sandpaper around the bit with my fingers and rotated it until the bore was smooth. Can't wait to install the trigger/spring kit in my new Ruger LCP Max!

[@jonschlegel2961]

Just ordered my kit and polishing kit! Even got a discount from your site, thank you. So excited to take an evening to do this! Thanks for this video. UPDATE: I followed your video and was able to do the job myself in just under 4 hours. My Gp100 was different than the one in this video because some of the details were different in the firearms, but I found a couple other videos online to help with disassembly and reassembly, but with 0 prior experience I was able to get it done! The trigger feels much smoother and overall the gun feels nicer. I’m very impressed. I used 2 shims for each of their respective pins. Didn’t have a feeler gauge I just played with it a little. Havnt taken her to the range yet, if someone comments on this I’ll update ya after I shoot it. Thanks y’all, top notch stuff!

I know I put it in and out at least 50 times, wiggling it and pushing. Finally, for some reason that I never did figure out, it dropped into place. The action feels MUCH better than before. Double action dropped to about 8 lbs or so, but I used an inexpensive Wheeler spring style trigger pull gauge.

Ditch the dremel tool and try some jewlers tools - Gesswein for example. Jewelers need/use felt bobs regularly, have various polishing compounds and their equiment has better speed control - which is nice if you need minor material removal using a burr [a dremel usually creates surface speeds that are too high]. You won't go back.

You're gonna want to replace the horrible stock grip, especially if you're shooting magnums. I had a rubber Houge for a long time, but recently got a walnut Beaver boot grip, which I highly recommend.

This video was phenomenal and more than enjoyable. Thank you

[@casper3oaks]

Awesome! Great explanation as usual. Looks like I got another excuse to take something apart!

Reworked my GP100 back in 1999 and it made a world of difference. I forget where I got the spring kit.

[@jimwaldron6828]

Excellent job Chris great video very informative

[@Kotzabaldiris]

Thank you! Amazing video! Great tutorial on a trigger job.

[@efreutel]

Absolutely fascinating. Wonderful presentation. Many thanks!

[@jimmansayagan7681]

great activity, will do mine soon as I got the necessary parts/kit. Thank you very much.

Best how-to I've seen...and I've seen a LOT. Excellent, just ordered your spring kit and polishing stuff for my SP101 327 Fed Mag. Can't wait to do the trigger and internal polishing. Thanks much for sharing your knowledge. Ron J.

[@MCARBO]

Glad to hear it Brother! Keep us posted on your results!

[@ronaldjohnston7989]

@@MCARBO Just did the spring replacement and trigger/internals polishing on my 2010 SP101 327 Fed. Mag. It was surprisingly easy after watching your video completely, then following along again as I did the work. I didn't use gloves which made it easier for me. The result was just as yours...amazing. You (M*Carbo) have put together a great kit for this firearm...keep up the great work and maybe do the same for the S&W J Frame revolver (I have 3)...I'm a customer for EVER!

What a great, in-depth vid on trigger prep.. I just ordered my own kit from you for my 7-hole GP100 .357mag, 6". I'll watch this again and again before I do the swap myself, and I just sent the link to my dad so he may try to understand why this hobby is so much fun. Cheers, -7

[@utubeaccess7]

Just finished the job, excellent results! I was disappointed to find the trigger spring rusted, which tarnished the SS plunger trigger group latch and the hole in the frame. This is a brand new gp100 that has 28rds through it and never saw moisture in the 2weeks that I've had it. Ruger is gonna get an email... Anyways, i followed your example and since your kit had a new spring and i polished the hole and cleaned the plunger parts, all is well. DA is like you said, night and day better. Tbis is my first revoler job (though ive been improving my own firearms for 30yrs now) and your instructions were perfect. Thanks! Btw, i also installed your spring kit for the 10/22 and takedown pin on the LCP today, fun day at the bench. Cheers

[@utubeaccess7]

That is, the _original_ trigger spring was rusted, yours was perfect.

I am about 1/3 through. First time for any of this. Excited. Had a real hard time getting the Trigger Guard off. Was very locked down. Watched another video that said push down as I pushed in with a flathead and that worked along with a very light tap on the edge with my brass punch. I can send you a video of it if you want.

[@LEXxTALIONS7913]

Amazing work. I own a Ruger sp101 to and the thing I really don't like is the trigger!!! My God is so hard in double action that if I do 2 mag dump my wrists feel!!! Then I pick one of my beloved S&W revolver and from factory they are so awesome, the difference between S&W and Ruger are astonishing!!!

Purchased a new SP101 a few weeks ago. 10lb trigger is effecting my normal accuracy. Installed the trigger kit straight away, polished the key points and found several metal flakes, burrs, and high spots in key areas effecting trigger operation. I've performed multiple upgrades to my firearms over the years and this was by far the roughest factory job I've come across. Used all the shims and could have used two more on the trigger to really tighten it up. I'll go to the range this week to test live fire results, but there is already a tremendous difference in the dry fire trigger pull. I'll post the results of the test. Update: went to the range and put 50 rounds down range. Trigger proved to be very smooth, easier to stay on target as my model is a 5706 double action only, 2.25" barrel . Put 90% of the rounds in the 9 and 10 rings. At the same time I lapped the end of the barrel as the barrel bevel was pretty rough. I saw other posts where burrs left from the factory effected accuracy as well. So new grip, trigger job with some polishing and debuting, and lapping the end of the barrel have resulted in an acceptable firearm. I think I'll put a better front sight to increase visibility on dark targets and I'll be done. But the money spent on the trigger job was well worth the investment and is super easy to perform. BTW all tests were done with factory ammo and I did not experience any misfires as others have eluded to.

Great video, true step by step. Thanks!

[@nelsondejesus7846]

Great tutorial video anyone can follow. Can't wait to get mine and do the upgrade. Thanks

Great Video. Thanks for putting this out

[@WARTHOG4U]

Excellent video! Thank you.

[@dcmtrader]

Awesome vid, picking up the 9mm Monday.

[@EJGentleman]

Great video and kit. Hit the mark as advertised. nice smooth clean trigger.

[@MCARBO]

Awesome! Thanks Brother for sharing your results!

[@paladin4570]

As per your other videos, this is top notch. I’d recommend that if you own a gun you’ve done a video on, watch it. If you are planning on buying a gun and you’ve done a video on, watch it. You may learn things you should know before you buy. Great stuff.

[@MCARBO]

Thanks Brother for the Support!

[@hbjokeboy]

Can't wait for my kit to get here!

[@MCARBO]

Thanks Brother for your support! Let us know your results.

[@thegreek8962]

That was fun and just awesome !!!
