Trigger noise problem
« on: April 29, 2011, 06:11:15 PM »
I just installed my new VZ grips for the pup and heard a grainy noise when pulling the trigger (dry firing). Took the grips off and cleaned up real good... re-installed but no change. When I took the grip off again I listened and did not hear the noise when I dry fired which tells me that something (sear spring or sear bar) is rubbing against the inside grip wall....anyone else experience this? Does it matter as far as affecting performance and functionality? Ask VZ for help (they are super to work with) Open to all and any comments and suggestions...thx!

Does the right grip panel show any signes of rubbing on the inside where the trigger bar is?

Sounds like the trigger bar may be rubbing on the inside of the right grip panel.

I have three sets of VZ grips and did not experience this problem. Two black checkered and one carbon fiber.

If the noise persistes, I would contact VZ for a replcement.

I just checked my factory grip an Aluma-Grip and the VZ grip and the recess on the VZ grip is fifty thousandths while the factory G-10 grip and the Aluma-Grip are sixty thousandths deep.
   I do not notice any rubbing on mine but that doesn't mean your isn't.

Got a bright idea to put the factory aluma grip back on and see what I got...heard the same sound....wondering if its been there all along as I never made a habit of holding the pup to my ear as I dry fired....Oh well...will take it out for a walk later and see what happens. I definitely did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night ::)

I have new VZ grips and  also had a very slight "scratchy" sound when dry firing.  But the sound went away when I inserted an empty magazine.
