Thanks so much. I bought a rifle with a broken safety and would not have even thought about changing it out myself without this video. Took me about 30 minutes, but I feel like I could do it again in about 15 minutes.
You helped me get the trigger pin in. Thanks! I took it apart because I needed to use my thumb to get the safety loose, I couldn't use my trigger finger. I opened it up, took a needle nose plier to the spring and now it is easier but engaging the safety is still harder than I like. Nothing is easy!
Hey great video. My problem is the safety is hard to push forward and backwards. A day at the range it(finger) feels the push. How can we smooth it out some. Nothing is bent but its not worn is after 10yrs. Any suggestions. ?
I previously commented on this issue. The safety not only prevents the trigger from moving but it pulls back the hammer and hooks it under the tension of the hammer spring, which is very heavy. No way to really make it better.
My hammer is riding extremely rough at the finally stage of engagement with the sear. Could possibly be a bent hammer? Making the mid part of racking the bolt extremely rough. I’ve put about 1500 rounds of rapid fire through the thing
Sometimes burrs develop on the hooks of the hammer where it engages with the TRIGGER. The moving part at the rear is to have the hammer catch when firing to ensure semi-automatic fire. If you look at an angle you should see how the 2 parts mate and probably see a gap. You also have to ensure all else is working fine. Take the hammer spring out and see if you get the same feel without the pressure. Trouble shoot one part at a time.

The safety is operating against the hammer spring. As the safety hooks the hammer it actually pulls it back slightly.
merci pour toutes ses video tres bien faites salutations de la suisse !!!!!!!
Thank you Jean!!

Your laundry is done. 4:30 into the video….
LOL, good ears!!!
I'd recommend 99.9% of people never do trigger jobs.
Let an expert With YEARS of experience do it. It's worth the money for a perfect M14 trigger.
