and trigger swap
At the shop during pickup








New Scope on new gun




Installing the new trigger group ( I was going to do a side by side trigger shot but damn if it wasnt easy as hell to swap that i forgot the shot)

Plastic matches the SS better but its plastic


Black doesnt match the SS as well but its metal and this is what has been done to it
The Hornet Trigger Guard Assembly includes these special replacement parts:

* Hand polished and honed Hammer for a light, smooth, trigger release
* Lightweight Trigger Return Spring and Custom Radius Trigger Return Plunger polished for smoothness
* Hornet Custom Sear and Disconnector honed for minimal positive engagement consistent with safety.
* Automatic Bolt Release eliminating two-hand operation - just pull back and release
* New Hornet Custom Extended Magazine Release - push forward and the magazine easily drops away - no more convoluted pinching to operate the release.
* All parts are fitted, lubricated, and tested.

Select "B2-C" option below for the cast aluminum housing instead of polymer.
Recommended, but not required. Limited availability.

Im so confused, is it a pistol? is it a rifle? ahhhh

Looks neat, look forward to the range report! I need one of those for the occasional grouse during hunting season :)

Jakey poo

Looks awesome.

Now you need to install the bolt shock buffer. GREATLY reduces recoil and eliminates the metal on metal contact.

The metal bar here (circled) is what gets replaced:



This is what it gets replaced with:



Just tap the metal one out and push the synthetic one in. It's that simple.

If you want the one in the picture above (it's what I put in my 10/22), it's $6 and can be obtained here: HawkTech Arms (They're a small company in Idaho.)

Nice!!

damn that's hot, I'm jealous..

Metonymy

Did you ever get the recoil buffer bar installed?

I noticed in the other thread that you changed out the bolt and a few other things.

How does it all feel? Were the modification worth the money spent?

KillermondoDude

drastic change no change yes worth 11 bucks yea (for the set of 3)

ive got one to give to anyone who needs it

And yes i think the extra money ive spent modifying that gun is worth it because it makes me happy

Metonymy

And this is what matters.

Congrats again man.

On my charger I swapped my *metal* painted trigger housing for an old anodized one because I didn't realize that the original one was metal. I polished the hammer and sear with my dremel and flitz metal polish, turned the plunger and spring around (plunger is in the hole and the spring is touching the trigger) and installed a 10" bull barrel from Hi-desertdog, AIM 2-7x32mm LER scope, Blackhawk Axiom stock and it outshoots my 10/22 rifle that has an 18" bull barrel and dressed in the Nordic Arms AR22 kit with A2 stock, rifle length full-float quadrail, 6-18x40mm scope and Harris bipod.

KillermondoDude

yea they are addictive in what you can do with / to/ dreams

If i do anything else to this gun would be to get a Kidd 2 stage trigger

since they quit making the stainless i need to get another to make into a 17mach2

Oh and pics please

this is my completed charger (as it now stands )



what ive done
Hornet series b trigger group with metal housing
Nemohunters anodised Charging Handle with matching mag release
Red Myst Jeweld radiused and trued bolt with Volq ejector

I can't post any pics of my Charger as I am stuck on the ship (deployed in support of Operation Unified Response Haiti) and our internet connection is slow and can't get to photobucket. So, the pics are here:

Thanks. I certainly enjoy shooting my Charger and I can't leave anything well enough alone! I am probably going to get a trigger job on my GSG-5 when I get back home again. I appreciate that you posted pics here (but I can't see them as Photobucket is blocked-I only get the red X's!) for everyone to see.

Hmmm if you know any midgets you should get a shot with him holding the charger and you holding a blacked out sniper
that would be cool yeahhhhhhh

Very well built How do you like th compensator or is it a harmonic balancer??

I got the Axiom stock because I love the look of the OEM laminated wood stock but I hate having dings and dents in such a nice stock. I had to dremel out the magwell area on the Axiom though as my BC Steel lips 25 rd mags were binding really bad when inserting and removing them. I like the VQ stabilization module. I have had one on my 10/22 forever and it just seems to help with accuracy-every little bit helps! It was just a hair too large to clamp the barrel so I made a shim out of a piece of coke can and it works fine. As far as the trigger, I used my scale and it breaks at 26oz! My 10/22 has the VQ target hammer and that one breaks at 33oz. Of course I didn't really touch the sear on that one relying on the VQ hammer. Somehow reversing the plunger and spring dropped the trigger weight from its previous of 42oz-33oz. It's a blast to shoot just like my 10/22 but it gets boring making holes in paper. At least the local range allows rapid fire so its fun plinking as fast as I can pull the trigger.
