I just got a VQ exact edge extractor, and a VQ target hammer. I am about to install them, but I remember reading on here somewhere that you should stick with your stock Ruger 10/22 springs instead of using the VQ springs that come with the parts......trouble is, I can't remember which springs that was referring to?

So, should I use all the springs that came with the extractor/hammer or stick with the ones I have?

Thanks.
 
I just finished the installation.....WOW what a difference in pull weight! I wasn't expecting that big of a difference.

I ended up using all the VQ springs except the extractor spring...If I find I'm getting any light primer strikes I'll swap out the hammer strut spring back to the factory spring.

The trigger/sear/disconnect were a little tricky getting back in, then I came across the "plastic fork trick" and popped it in as easy as pie.

Can't wait to try her out tomorrow! Calling for 15-30 cm of snow but I'll still be heading out to try out the upgrades, lol.

:D:D:D

FTE was the main issue with their spring. I had it happen to me a couple times as well. I changed back to my OEM spring and never had it happen again. The spring is not stiff enough or to soft would be my guess.
