I have found it actually does something. If there is no screw you can’t eliminate the first stage completely. 😉
I like little to no first stage and I couldn’t get it exactly where I wanted it without that screw.
It also acts as an over travel screw. Another handy thing for competition shooting. 😀
FYI, I watched both videos, I think you may be referring to the ‘sear’ as a ‘shear’. May be the accent, hard to tell. Thanks for the videos, it’s nice to have a some explanation as to what is going inside the rifle! Did you mention you were going to make one for adjusting the EdGun triggers?
Thanks for the video! Keep them coming.
Thanks yellowyak for posting my video!! 😆
I was wandering why there was a hole with threads with no screw in it, 4 of my cricket didn’t have it—–> I put a screw in it and see if I can adjust the blade position back stop, and now I see why they didn’t have a screw! ——> its useless.
See my other trigger video on how to add an extra o-ring to prevent the 2nd stage screw from backing out if it does you will loose your hair trigger then unable to cock or engage the shear. I wanted to use a heavy spring under that screw but couldn’t find the right size, but o-ring are easy to get—plus its adjustable—its not if you use thread sealer.

He is missing the adjustment screw that is right behind the trigger blade. 😯
Great video though, I have already messed with my trigger a few times including reshaping the blade itself. It was not easy getting the blade out…

Thanks Synopsys,
That’s one GOOD thing when getting old, always learning!
Yes have accent, “Shear”
when I’m in the internals video I’ll explain what I know, to make shot to shot consistency by tuning the barrel by lead lapping the barrel to 8,000, 14,000 and 50,000 diamonds past, polishing the regulator disks and rotor, polishing the hammer piston, spring polishing, breech bore polishing for the hammer piston and spring, crowning the breech end of barrel, polishing the smooth bore, porting the valve, polishing the crown, enlarging and polishing the air port hole on the barrel. all the polishing on the sliding surface has made my max spread less then 8fps before I started it was 16fps, average shot to shot spread is 2fps prior was 6fps. proper polishing is just enough to polish the high spots, without removing excesses material.
On the R3 I will design an adjustable needle screw so I can adjust a long 1st stage travel and have a back stop for the rocker, I think the Edgun trigger adjustments has been a over topic and full of knowledgeable information in place. Maybe a video of my trigger adjustment on the Lelya 2 adjustment screw like the R3 and may give someone a little idea or not, or I will learn more?
