A sad day for the Hobo :(
Hey everyone,
Today was the day I was going to do the trigger mod... the one where u change the spring.... the origonal Idea was to wait for 20bps_tes to get onto AIM so he could walk me through the "bent copper" type mod... didnt know what copper to bend. I got impatient and decided to listen to ppl on the internet... I might have heard wrong but hey.
Any ways, I took pics of each and every step so that I could post it here to help everyone else. Got to the spring, so I cut off the 2 coils as I remember being told (might be wrong), put it all back together and it felt like the trigger was a sponge!!! So I tried to strech the spring to get it back to what it was and now its ****ed....
So before I head off to work I must go to the local electrical shop anf find a new switch... I hope and pray that they have a switch that will both fit and work nicely... I realy dont want to go from the stock 250g switch to a 500g switch coz thats all they have!!!!!!!!
Sigh... well thats my dilema
Flame away at my stupidity!! - if cutting was wrong that is!!
~~Hobo Joe~~
