Didn't know if this was better here or in Milsurp but here goes:
I've heard alot of you that have/had a Cooey 82 complaining about the horrible trigger pull these have. When I got mine, the trigger pull was honestly the worst I've ever seen in all my years of shooting. I don't think a gauge would go high enough to measure it. I had to squeese really hard to get the striker to fall.
I wasn't about to have this so what I did was try to find the sorce of this problem and try to correct it. I noticed that the spot on the striker that the sear holds was shaped like this: < and the sear would rest in this slot untill the trigger was pulled. What I did was I took a Dremel & cutting wheel and grinded a little off the bottom lip. I'd grind a small bit, put the bolt back in the rifle, try it, and if it was still not enough, repte as nesasary. Now I have a very light (but not "hair" light) pull on my 82 and I'm much more accurate with it.
