Flipped my ak safety too far, trigger feels weird

[Shadowtengu]

I flipped the trigger a bit too far, and then put it back and the trigger felt somewhat limp. I'm not too sure how the trigger works but, i doubt its broken, is there a way to fix it?

You probably knocked one of the legs of the hammer spring off of the trigger. Both ends of the spring should be resting on the rear of the trigger behind the disconnector.

oh YEAH i see

So do i just get some pliers and put it back on? It's okay right?

Take the top cover off.

Then take out the recoil spring and the BCG.

You should see a funny looking spring in there with two "legs" - each of those legs should be on top of the "back" of the trigger.

If one of them isn't - use a screw driver or pliers to put it back.

Here's what it should look like:

Thank you very much

Alright i fixed it, trigger feels like normal. Thank you very much. Would this ever happen while shooting or just when messing with fire selector safety switch?

Nothing should make it happen. The spring might be bent a little wrong - you can fix it with needle nose pliers by making it look just like the spring on the left in the photo. It should lay squarely on top of the "back" of the trigger. Sometimes, if they are bent wrong - they slip off the back of the trigger.

Bend the legs forward towards the front of the gun so they don't slip off the back of the trigger.
