Title: Beeman P17 Trigger Job?
Post by: DevilsLuck on April 29, 2018, 11:00:58 AM
I recently purchased one of these gems. And while I m loving it so far; the tinkerer in me says the trigger could be better. So I was wondering if any of you have done any trigger work on yours; and was hoping you might have taken some pictures along the way. Because there’s nothing worse than tearing something apart; only to not be able to put it back together.

Pictures are out there, I've seen quite a few.  I'd suggest a search for P17 Trigger and you should get some results.  I've worked all of mine and they can be absolutely excellent but unfortunately I did not take pictures along the way.  It is a simple mechanism so don't be afraid of just jumping into it.

Ha, I learned a long time ago to never tear anything apart unless I am just doing it out of curiosity and do not intend to put it back together. This is probably the worst hobby to have for someone with as little skills as I have, but I do love airguns.  ::)

Took the grip panel off; just to have a peek mind you... And I had a heck of a time getting it back on. I really only want to do it once. And do it right! That’s why I asked for photos. Sure it may be cheating... But if you ain’t cheatin’; you ain’t tryin’!
