It doesn't really matter. You can use electrical tape, duct tape etc. Don't use crappy stuff or in might wear down. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

Any tape will wear down. The tape is not going to stay, it will migrate, and after a while of soaking in the oil it will not stick to anything. Then you have crap gumming up the works. Go to Radio Shack and get some shrink wrap, if your insistant on screwing up your sear. ------------- United States Marine Corps.... When it absolutely, positively, has to be destroyed overnight!

What you are all missing is that when you do this mod, you reduce the size of the area that the sear catches the rear bolt. Yes it will reduce the length of the trigger pull, but the sear and the bolt are catching on the very edge. So keep in mind that you will reduce the life expectancy of the sear. The edge will chip off and round off untill it doesn't catch anymore. buy an extra sear now, you will need it soon. ------------- United States Marine Corps....

Sears are like $10, which I just realized was not as cheap as I thought they were. I am thinking about removing the tape around my pin. My R/T shoots great without it, but if you have the $10 for the extra sear, I'd say go for it. ------------- Founder of the "Forumers Against the Ugly Woman Sigs" also known as FAUWS. |

the sear ALWAYS catches on the edge. For people that have done this how
long have you used this on your gun and have you had to replace your
sear?
