CS
AR15 "NM" Trigger Return Spring
Set
INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
After a little
experience, installing the two spring
arrangement is no more difficult than
installing a single spring.

Step 1:
Remove the trigger from the rifle. Pay
careful attention to the positions and
orientation of the existing hammer and
trigger return springs before removal. The
springs are reinstalled respecting these
original orientations.
Step 2:
Remove the standard trigger return spring
and hammer spring. Set them
aside.
Step 3:
Install both trigger return springs in the
CS NM Trigger Return Springs Set so that
they are side by side on the trigger --
the trigger return spring that has its leg
on the left (outside) of the left side of
the trigger will then have its other leg
on the inside on the right side of the
trigger. [See Photo 1 for correct
installed orientation.]
[The spring legs
may want to "X" across each other and
these can be pulled out into correct
position using a dental pick following
assembly of the lower portion of the
trigger.]
Step 4:
Install the hammer spring and reassemble
the trigger. It may be necessary to use
two dental tools (after the hammer is
installed) to lift up the hammer spring
leg so that you can pull the leg over the
outside coil of the trigger return spring
enough so that the hammer leg can ride on
the pivot pin (as it is supposed to) and
not on top of the out coil of one of the
trigger return springs.
Photo Notes
Photo 1 and Photo 2 shows how the
pivot pin is exposed on one side of the
trigger and how the coil of one of the
trigger return springs blocks the hammer
leg from getting to the pivot pin on the
other side. Note that the hammer leg is on
top of the coil spring (not the pivot pin)
-- to remedy this lift the hammer spring
leg and push the trigger return spring
coil over enough to allow (use dental
tools) enough room for the hammer leg to
rest on top of the pivot pin. [Photo 3
shows correct installed
orientation.]
Tuning
With no bend in the trigger return
springs, first-stage trigger weight should
be approximately 3.0 pounds. Further
tuning is accomplished by bending the legs
on one set of trigger return springs
downward. [As per Photo 4 -- both sets
may be bent if needed.] This will
easily result in a 3.5+ pound first-stage
weight. Second-stage weight is adjusted
following your trigger manufacturer's
recommendations.
We recommending
lubricating the spring contact points with
a high quality gun oil or dry
lubricant.
