    Thanks for the tip on the screw behind the trigger, I have now done this on both of my pistols, a great improvement. Let folks know that this also disables the anti beartrap and allows the trigger to release the sear with the barrel fully open, which will wreck the pistol if the trigger is pulled with the barrel open. While one should not pull the trigger with the barrel open, there may be those who are overly trusting of mechanical safeties (or lacking in training or common sense) that may need to be advised.

      These Snowpeaks do not have bear traps. You just set it too light so it slammed forward on you Lol. Do small adjustments at a time and that won't happen to you.

      I restrained the barrel and uncocked the pistol gently. With the screw removed the trigger does not release the piston on any of my examples. Perhaps this is the reason it has been deleted on current examples. The intitial version of the snow peak made for Diana seems to have had the screw installed at the factory.

    I missed this vid when you posted it. After the trigger work, how does it compare to your modified buckmark trigger? Which one do you prefer? Have you done a head to head with this or ruger mark 4? Thanks again for all you do for the airgun community! I will keep watching.

    I have just bought this pistol. I didn't quite understand from the video, should I turn the flat head screw clockwise to adjust and improve the trigger? And could anyone tell me the dimensions of the second screw in millimeters? Should I be looking for a 3mm wide screw? Sorry for that propably stupid questions but my english is not that good as I would like :D Anyway thank you so much fot that video!

    Hello, so in a few words, you just have to turn clockwise that little screw, and thats it? Im a budget gun lover and now Im between snowpeak and Umarex Trevox. The thing is the trevox has the same trigger issue but it is a little bit harder to fix. What do you think? Regards from Cancun.

    Thanks for the video, I have a question, is it easy to remove the front sight of the cannon to put a silencer on, or is it difficult to remove it, if you can tell me, I would appreciate it, I don't want to screw up. Thank you

    Is the grub screw, which I think is also called a set screw, that you used, the cupped pointed, chamfered, or flat-nosed variety? Or do you think it even makes any difference? You mentioned reassembling the gun to test fire as you tweek the sear engagement screw. Do you have to put all the screws back in or just the two that attach the right side of the grip frame with the trigger guard? Thanks for these tear down videos. I always like to know as much as I can about what I'm getting into, before I get into it and seeing it done is the best way for me.

    • @WalnutandSteel

      The set screws i have are cup pointed. I actually found I could cock it and test the trigger without putting the handle back on.

    if I'm understanding this right, does the grub screw self tap itself when tightening it down with the .050 hex wrench and then it makes contact with the sear?

    You have both diameters/calibers and also love them both?
    Come on, you have to choose one and tell us why. I am so confused.... So I asked AI. Here is what I got for an answer.
    "I can understand your confusion, but it's important to remember that everyone has different preferences and reasons for enjoying different things. Just because you might not understand...[REDUCTED]... Some airguns are designed for plinking and target shooting, while others are designed for hunting small game. The UA-camr you mentioned may simply enjoy the versatility of having both a 4.5mm and a 5.5mm airgun, as they can be used for different purposes.
    Additionally, it's worth noting that the UA-camr may have more experience with airguns than you do, and so they may be able to better appreciate the nuances of each caliber. For example, they may be able to take advantage of the increased power and accuracy of the 5.5mm airgun for longer-range shots, or they may find the 4.5mm airgun to be more suitable for close-range plinking.
    Ultimately, it's up to each individual to decide what they enjoy about airguns. If you're not sure whether or not you would enjoy owning a 4.5mm or 5.5mm airgun, I recommend doing some research and talking to other airgun enthusiasts. You may be surprised to find that you enjoy shooting one or both of these calibers more than you thought."
    What do you think? AI got it straight?
