    Midway USA sells the comp trigger group for $90. You might be able to locate the Stealth levers from Brownell’s, etc.

    Ok.... I did some searching, and Beretta is the only place that has the levers in stock right now, but they’re deceptive...lol! The item # is # E00348. The don’t look like Stealth levers, but someone here assured me they were, and they are indeed the Stealth levers. Ignore the picture on Beretta’s website.

    My gunsmith figured out how to put the competition trigger in the subcompact during his R&D so I just used that coupon code to order another comp trigger. I don’t even have the things in my hand yet and they are costing me money!

    Whoa, do you have details on this? For now I bought the Special Duty Spring Kit to upgrade the subcompact I have.

    He figured it out, and figured out to reduce the reset on all the PX4’s

    I could see the TCG (not by them, but from memory, I believe the sides are shorter on the subcompact). But do you really mean reduce the reset an ALL PX4's (the C version as well)?

    Shortening the reset on the Type C is easy. Just swap in the standard trigger & trigger bar. You’ll also gain back second strike capability

    That is just the standard D model conversion or a hybrid F/G model without the safeties (where you thumb the hammer).
    Hence me asking him for specific's. I am trying to figure if there is a different way, as the C uses a different trigger bar, which is where that discussion on the other board went.

    OK, this is not exactly true. While they do interchange, i.e. you can swap them around, they do not use the same springs. The standard F model spring in a 92 is a much heavier spring than the F model PX4 spring. In fact, the F model PX4 spring is a little lighter than the D model 92 spring.

    While the 12# spring works in both guns, you're going to get much less firing pin energy in a model 92 with that spring. Therefore your likely to run into light strike issues with the 92 sooner than you would with the PX4.

    OK, again we have some confusion here.

    The trigger bar from Wilson helps in a few ways. One, it cocks the hammer back farther in DA and therefore improves firing pin energy on the DA pull. It also has an overtravel stop to reduce over travel and therefore shorten reset as well.

    The hammer does two things as well. One, it is heavier than the Elite II hammer, and the weight is distributed differently so that it delivers more firing pin energy than the Elite II hammer while also improving lock time over the full weight stock 92 hammer. It also has a different pre-travel point than the stock hammers, either the Elite or standard hammer, so you will have slightly less take up in single action.

    So, the hammer will help if you have light strikes with an Elite II hammer, but not if your having light strikes with an standard hammer.

    Hammer weight matters when it comes to firing pin energy.
