Just swapped out the 10 pound hammer spring for the 12 pound hammer spring for the same reason. I was averaging at least 1 light strike per magazine at the range. Hoping the 12 pound spring resolves this issue.

@@B2the4th Did the 12 lb resolve it? I started with the 10lb, but I also get light strikes.

@@kristopherhiser4967 Yes I've ran about 3 boxes of ammo through it with the 12lb and not one light primer strike. With the 10lb I couldn't make it through a magazine without a light primer strike. Go with the 12

@@B2the4th Thank you! I could shoot my defensive ammo with the 10lb, but I could not make it through a single mag of FMJ with the 10lb. I swapped to the 12lb last night. Haven't had a change to test yet.

@@kristopherhiser4967 Shouldn't have any more issues with it. My philosophy on ammo is I want a gun that will shoot almost anything I put in it. (Russian steel ammo is the exception) Never know when you'll find yourself in a situation and Magtech FMJ is all you got.

For later......take guns apart with the gun inside a gallon-size clear zip-lock bag. A spring that goes flying is then found in the bag........

@@TheWilferchuse a jumbo 3 gallon bag much easier

Definitely love the stuffed springs, not a big fan of the twang when dryfiring.

@@snapshotdod I’m with you. I think I sold my old LCP2 simply because of the sound when dry firing. I think Ruger should steal their idea.

The LCP Max is my summer shorts go-to gun!!!!!!! I use only Critical Defense ammo for my 380 and 9mm guns 😮

Hello, we are sorry to hear that. Was the M*Carbo firing pin spring used? As our hammer spring has to eb used with the M*Carbo firing pin spring.

Thanks for your HONESTY about these products. When 99% of comments are a bunch of rants and raves it makes me skeptical like they’re paid for their reviews or employees of the company or something 👀🐸☕️

I do not want to change the spring, but do you advise upgrade the trigger? I just got the Ruger LCP Max Anniversary edition, and read that the stock trigger is pinching fingers. can I do the trigger and leave the factory spring? thanks!

@@CompShooter54 I did buy their trigger and the spring kit, but haven’t installed it yet. Definitely going to go with the heavier hammer spring when I install it. I always think there’s a balance between pull weight and action/travel of the trigger, I usually carry something with a 5-6 pound trigger with a fair amount of pre travel and a slightly longer reset. I’m not the biggest fan of a manual safety on a carry gun, unless it’s a single action only gun. I’ve had a lot of pocket 380’s over the years, but strangely haven’t had a Bodyguard. A palm size gun with a long DAO trigger that breaks at 9 lbs sounds pretty tough to shoot accurately. Is that the case?

Noted. Will take a look into it!

I couldn’t agree more !! Such a pain in a butt-hole

Just swapped out the 10lbs for the 12lbs for the same reason. Hoping that resolves the issue. I'm sure it will.

Don't dry fire it too much broke mine like that

@@user-rm2wj1bv5n oh crap

Totally with you, thought that the first time I pulled the trigger on the older LCP2 years back. The design of their new hammer springs to cancel that sounds is pure genius!

The red or blue coating is stopping the vibration. That means you can make any hammer spring anti vibration with just a little coating.

Galloway offers the safety in both aluminum and plastic. Some people prefer the feel of the Galloway trigger@@Vlad_MCarbo

It's fine imo, the upgrades will make it easier to shoot. The flat trigger is just a matter of preference, same with pretravel. The hammer spring makes a difference for sure.

I believe with the new trigger set all the way in it would be close to same as original pull length, and you could try to adjust the travel, maybe something slightly shorter would be long enough for that saftey margin but also an improvment on the overal feel

I wouldn’t for carry

@@peterv1318 but of noobie here can you explain why not? I thought adding the trigger and 12lb spring would help increase accuracy and overall trigger comfort why is that bad for carry

@@guitarthrasher81 - as long as it still has the drop safety. But trigger is very light so under stress you may shoot when you shouldn’t have.

@@peterv1318 I see. Guess it all comes down to training and disciple. thanks

@@guitarthrasher81 light trigger is easier for you to squeeze for it to go off. Under stress this can make it go of when you don’t want it to. Yes you would have better control in shooting. In most situations you just have to pull the pistol and they will talk shit but walk away. You don’t want to be pointing it at them waiting for them to decide if they still want to attack you and the gun goes off. Edit you will most likely have your finger resting on trigger and stress will actually make you tighten your fingers.

Had light strikes on both springs, even after using the lighter firing pin spring. I’ve since reinstalled the stock hammer spring

@@PunkPinolight strikes with the 12lb spring?

@@Cwh1992 yes. Out of 100 rounds of PMC Bronze 90 grain FMJ had about 6 or 7 light strikes with the 12lb hammer spring and the lighter firing pin spring. Never had any light strikes when testing higher end defensive rounds though.

so should I leave the factory springs and just upgrade the trigger?

​​@@bryantartusI was wrong. No, take out the factory springs, except the OEM trigger return spring. After testing different springs, if you upgrade your trigger and hammer spring, make sure you change to a lighter firing pin spring. If you don't, light primer strikes will happen, even with the 12lb hammer. Also, I suggest upgrading to a heavier trigger return spring, and not use the lighter one which comes with the trigger.

Send it to me

Why? Using a holster that covers the trigger and not pulling a gun out unless you intend to use it solves the issue. Also 5 pounds isn't that light. Also, don't keep your finger on the trigger. Don't do stupid crap and it's fine.

Really??? WOW

Focus on the gun not his fingers fa g

This is a gun related video. There are channels about manicure and other make up tips

@@herberar lmao

What do you mean, the improvements from trigger and spring kit aren’t worth the cost of the parts?
