Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Problems installing Hephaestus steel trigger assembly for WE-AK

So I broke the hammer on my WE/AKS74u

I figured there were two solutions:

RA-Tech with a shoddy selector lever or Hephaestus (expecting it to be godly, I don't know what made me think that?) I bought the latter, being cheaper and advertized as a drop in fit.

part (87) did not engage well with the hammer (85) and was causing the hammer to drop before the bolt closed.

I faced the engagement point of (87) with the hammer and got it to hold the hammer back when out of battery with the trigger depressed.

but its wonky and fires in 3-10 shot bursts until it jams with the hammer down.

there is no friction in the action to cause it to fail. I think its a trigger box issue.

anyone install one of these? any problems along the way? I don't want to go file and dremel crazy till I know what I'm doing.
