Q:

Condor trigger group

Does anyone have a pic of the Condor trigger group with the parts exposed.Ihave a Wok trigger unit on my gun and a 90 – 95 gram Talon Tune hammer and it will not cock any more. It worked fine for 700 shots now the hammer will not catch when it is cocked. Anybody else ever have this issue with their Condor. I did remove all the safety parts months ago and it worked until today. Thanks for any help.

The trigger is the only thing I have not messed much with yet. It looks like Tony charged me for the entire trigger assembly.. I asked for the old parts back but didn’t get them, so I am not sure what he replaced. Next time if it happens again I will open it up and inspect all the trigger components and fix it myself. The trigger is the one weak link on these guns and not the best of designs. My .22 Condor worked well with the safety removed (by previous owner) for 3yrs and at least a couple of thousand shots until those little springs decided to go sideways on it when the pins started moving out of place, but they were bigger than stock and messed with, again by previous owner.

Replaced the Condor with an Air Arms 410, no more trigger issues.

Harry you said that Tony replaced the trigger assembly on your gun. Do you mean the trigger, the part next to it and the sear? If I manually cock the gun and push on the sear with a little screw driver it will cock. That lousy sear spring is so weak. If I could only find a stronger spring or is the trigger assembly parts shot. Shit nobody in Canada fixes these guns. I sure wouldn’t buy another one.

Take out the safety wire thing

Take out the safety bar by removing the 2 pins.

Reinsert the pins and now you simply cock and decock your gun.

The safety is one of the most unsafe things on this gun. Damn thing will cause the gun to fire when it gets buggered.

Thanks for the Reply WalkonKing….I’m feeling better about it already!!!

I am new to Airforce airguns (Condor), but already dislike the safety mechanism. MagnumAir mentioned he removed his safety parts, and this interests me. I plan to de-cock the rifle if a shot is not eminent.

I have searched the forum and found plenty of diagrams, but not anything that mentions the removal of specific parts.

Do I need to remove the Safety Bar (#10031), Safety Bar Spring (#10302), Safety Spring (#10303), and Safety Slide (#10025)? Or just a few of the listed parts? One thread seemed to allude to just removing the Safety Bar, but perusing the diagrams, I don’t see how the Safety Slide could/would ever be allowed to disengage then.

Will the removal parts make the trigger assembly less stable, and more prone to unexpected firing? Once again, one thread alluded to the removal of the safety parts as making the trigger group more reliable. I don’t want to make the gun less safe mechanically,…keeping in mind the “gun operator” is the “true safety”.

Please don’t feel as if you have to re-invent the wheel if this is covered somewhere else. If there is already a link, please just poing me to it.

Thanks, and your insight is appreciated. I’ve been modding Crosman airguns for a bit,….and now its time for me to visit the dark side of Condors….

Yep, had the same issue after several hundred shots with a heavier spring and hammer on my .25 and sometimes it would discharge by itself after I was able to cock it. Sent it to Tony and he said the heavier springs tend to bend trigger components. He replaced the trigger assembly and installed a stock spring.

oops! 😳 that’s the one I meant ❗ ❗

Nope thats not it.

This is it

Does it work if you put the power wheel on 0? I had the same problem when I started running heavier hammer springs.

Do a search – they are there.
