The videos are great!

Be extra careful when you split the upper apart. You must take the tension setscrew out first or you would have parts flying out. Make sure you don't loose the little pieces inside. Good luck and let us know if things work out well for you.

There is a trigger job video on Youtube for your gun.

I have the same gun as well. After watching the disassembly video on the web. I took the little 22 apart.
I polished everything moving part in the action. I also polished the sear as well.

My trigger is now at 4.1 Lbs and smooth as glass. That little pencil barreled gun is pretty dam accurate. You can also change the impact point by tightening or loosening the barrel a bit. That changes the tension of the barrel and can help you achieve slightly better accuracy with a given ammo. (did for me)

NOTE:
The gun is relatively easy to take apart and put back together.
Go after it. And have some fun.

If ya get stuck. PM me for a phone number.

I stoned my trigger grp to help with weight. The springs in the trigger PAC will get away from you if your not careful, I took mine apart in a large zip lock bag.

I replaced that little spring near the trigger bottom with one from a pen (cut to length). It is much smoother than the original. I lapped all the surfaces and polished to a mirror finish. I also polished all the contact surfaces, especially the housing bearing surfaces that ride against the trigger mechanism. After all that additional work, the action is very smooth with absolutely no binding at all. The trigger was also reduced down to 4 lbs or so. I love the feel of the trigger and the gun now.

Ishould have stoned the bearing surfaces, next time I have it apart. I'd really like a a trigger shoe.

My goal now is cleaning and make it reliable, after that I will try to do the trigger job. Thank you for your guidances.
