I obtained my first M1G about six months ago and so far have only had it to the range twice. Before the first trip I replaced the op, clip latch and trigger hammer springs and lubed the rifle. With respect to trigger performance I remember nothing from that first trip about trigger problems. The clips however were being spit out with a couple rounds left. It was suggested on this forum that replacing the clip ejector spring would probably cure that. So I replaced that spring and on the next trip the problem with early clip ejection was no more. BUT now the trigger pull is way too high. I can't even guess what the pull weight is but if it were any higher I probably would not possess enough strength in my finger to fire a round. I removed the trigger group and reinstalled it but no change. Is it even possible to install the trigger group incorrectly and still have the gun be able to fire? Anyway anyone got any ideas what could be going on here - how can the trigger pull go from normal to off the scale by simply removing and replacing the trigger group during a clip ejector spring replacement?

Thanks!
