T1X dead trigger issue

[fyaman43]

Love my T1X but having an issue lately.

A while back I installed an Elay precision spring and adjusted for a light tigger pull (I don't have a gauge) and it's been running great. However, the last two sessions I've shot, *very infrequently* I'll cycle the bolt, spent case ejects, but the trigger is completely dead. I'll press the trigger and it's completely frozen, no movement, no click, nothing. At first I thought I might be short stroking the bolt but I don't think it's the case. If I cycle the bolt again and eject the unfired round I'm right back in the game but it's less than ideal during an NRL22 match as it forces a reload (mag extensions en route).

Any ideas? Maybe a safety issue? Thanks!

Increase the trigger pull weight. It's too light and the sear doesn't keep the bolt cocked.

I’d start with checking the screw that holds it on

LP is most likely correct. You may have to adjust the screw through the trigger guard.

Everyone "including me" wants to run on the edge with light pull weight but sometimes to get a 99-100% working trigger you have to increase the pull weight. I've had to do that with my Elftmann and Trigger Tech triggers.

It’s a super recent issue. Possible that as the trigger spring “breaks in” I’ve passed the line of 100% reliability? I’ll crank it up a touch.

Yes springs lose some of their tension over time. I know my Trigger Techs say expect it to loosen 25% after a few hundred rounds.
