Pre conversion question


Recommended Posts

I thought I was all ready to convert and understood everything. I am planning to use CSS conversion kit #1. I thought it was just install these parts and voila. Now I keep reading the hammer needs to be profiled or I might end up with cycling problems. I have no idea what this means. Can I send the hammer some place and have it done by somebody that knows what he's doing? I am planning, in addition to the #1 kit to order the access lock plate, re-worked BHO lever and possibly the JTE performance hammer spring. They refer to a "Modified trigger group and hammer", but it still needs to be profiled?  I'm confused.

I think CSS sells a already profiled hammer

Although if you have the confidence to convert a gun, you could do it yourself without any problems.  The main purpose is to lessen friction, and I like to file mine so the hammer hits the firing pin flat on instead of on an angle.  a file, some 400 grit wet dry sandpaper with a little wd40 on it is all you really need.

That's not a profiled hammer. It's modified for use with the bho and in an s12 it has the hump removed.

It will still most likely need profiling.

If you can do the conversion,you can profile a hammer. Just mirror the factory hammer.

The hammer face has been altered in the picture.  That's definitely not just a typical tromix mod.

Ahh you might be right. I was looking at it from my phone, which wasn't showing the price or pic. But on the tablet, I see it now. Greg should put a little better description in there....
