Rustynuts 3 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) I'm sure it's been done before, but I wanted to try the Tromix DIY S-12 trigger guard on my 410. Was stymied at first as none of the holes really lined up. Then I got the idea to trim off the forward welded nut to clear the new trigger, then drilled two new holes, one in the trigger guard forward of the old one, and one in the receiver for the rear welded nut. The middle nut was lined up with the old trigger hole, so I just placed a big washer over the Ace Internal block and cranked it down without filling the old trigger hole. The Tromix guard "almost" fills the void. Worked out pretty good, but the trigger does set a little forward. No issues with functionality, but might not work with gloves. At least it matched my S-12 now! (forgot to take pics of the two together). Here are a bunch of progress shots. (ignore the crappy finish on the bottom of the receiver, most of it is fuzz from where I knocked them down by sanding. Will need to refinish later) Edited March 9, 2010 by Rustynuts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Garys4598 1,065 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 In my honest opinion. . . this thread's subject title is hugely misleading. (Can't help but to wonder if such was your intent.) Nonetheless, congrats with the successful installation of your new trigger guard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I put it in "parens" in the title. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmax4x4 68 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 That trigger is a bit far up. It looks a little uncomfortable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rustynuts 3 Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 No effect at all for me, works fine. If you have stubby fat fingers, may be a problem, or gloves as I mentioned. That's why the real Tromix 410 uses a squared off guard. I wanted to see if I could get the original profile to work so it matches my S-12. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
