FEG GPM-01 Trigger Adjustment

Hello Guys, I just bought this air pistol a few weeks ago, and the trigger is set
way too light..lighter than the factory set my Morini 84e! I got it from an old,
experienced Silhouette shooter; they like triggers set that way I guess.
I have done some homework and studied internet postings for fill weights
and trigger and grip adjustment. Well, I think I've got the cylinder sorted,
and it took a long time to figure out the grip angle adjustment...very clever...
But the trigger is baffling. I found a manual posted on the internet...in German;
I tried the Google translator with hilarious and useless results. I actually like
the nose heavy balance, the sight alignment is easy to sustain, and shot release
feels very similar to my Morini 84E with compensator.
So I do hope someone here can help me get my trigger adjusted. The
German manual shows an exploded view, but the screws in the trigger
plate are not described except for the adjusting screw(#38) that seems to adjust the
sear or it's a trigger stop adjuster...? Thanks for your efforts and thoughts

We have two out of service FEGs at our club. I think there is a manual (in English) with one of them. Will have a look when I go shooting and if so will let you know and then I can make PDF's and email them to you.
Cheers ColinC

Tony,

I have a 'english'(?) manual for the GPM-02. In the diagrams it shows GPM-01 (from memory, the differences other than the CO2 cylinder were mainly cosmetic).

If you contact me (pm or e-mail me) with your e-mail address I can get a scan and forward it.
On these pistols, fortunately the grip stops screw #12 from backing off too far (as in all the way out)!

Hi Colin and Spencer, I'm delighted to read that you guys can help me, and
that you responded so quickly. I guess I'm one of the crazy ones that actually
like to use CO2. I live close to many CO2 sources, There's a gas /welding
supply store near me, and there are at least eight Paintball shops in and near
my community. Here is my email address:

Thanks for everything;

Hi Spencer, I just checked that email address, I sent a test and you're right, someting is wrong, but I don't know what because I'm receiving
lots of mail from other sources that are using the same address;

sgallegos2@earthlink.net

I try sending from this post, thanks I'll straighten this out or get my IT
son to do it.

Well Spencer it worked this time from this posting, I'll delete the prior
email address posts; so please try from here; thanks;

Tony G
