    I was SOOO frustrated taking this gun apart to replace the springs for a reduced trigger weight. No videos out there address the more updated internals of the .22 but you sir, saved me so much time! THANK YOU!!

    I installed this very setup in my LCP, tested it on the range yesterday and it worked perfectly. I used three brands of .22 ammunition and found all of them to work just fine. This video was most helpful for the installation process. All the LCP issues I was experiencing seem to be solved, thanks Galloway. Next item is to figure out how to improve the sights to make them more visible.

    I literally just finished the install of the spring kit. I suck with taking apart guns and screwing around with a bunch of tiny parts, but this video was GREAT to watch along to as I installed everything. I’m a moron, so if I could do it then so can almost anyone else. I just had to really take my time, rewind the video ever now and then, and try not to throw everything across the room out of frustration. You weren’t kidding about trying to hold all the parts together while rebuilding. That was the part I struggled with.
    Thanks for making the spring kit and for showing our dumbasses how to install it.

    I purchased one of these for my wife a couple weeks ago and immediately found the light strike, ejection and feed problems using 4 different brands of ammo. I couldn't fire 3 rounds without a failure. I came in searched UA-cam and found this video. I hurried and bought this kit, the stainless steel rod and the tool kit. It came in in a few days and I just installed the springs this morning. I read they like CCI mini mag ammo and I happened to have that in my safe. Went outside and rapid fired 10 rounds, reloaded 10 more shot those and finally reloaded and rapid fired 10 more with no problems at all. Even with that very limited test, I'm very happy with this kit! Holding those dang parts on there was FUN!!!!! LOL!!!! The only problem I have with the tool kit is when I went to knock out the hammer spring pin the punch is pretty soft metal and I couldn't drive out the pin. The hole isn't totally round enough to get the 1/16th punch in there. I ended up just opening the eye of the stock spring and pulling it off without removing the pin. After removing I bent it back and put it in the bag. Overall a great cost effective kit for the .22 lite rack!

    Just installed the trigger and spring kit. It wasn't too bad, and while I've been fixing things all my life, I haven't done that much with guns, with all the little springs and parts that go flying away if you don't hold everything in place while you're reinserting the works into the frame (that was the toughest part.)
    Very clear and straightforward, though there's a section where the work is out of the view of the camera.
    All in all, a very good video, and now I can't wait to try the gun at the range!!

    Some may be asking why would want to use this caliber as a self-defense round. There are plenty of other rounds out there that are affordable, capable, and accessible for self-defense. The main reason someone would choose it is for the low recoil. While rare, many people lack the strength to effectively handle even a .380 ACP. Concealed carriers owe it to themselves to be as well-armed as physically possible and while most are able to carry a caliber more substantial than .22 LR, some simply can’t. Ammunition in this caliber is super cheap, so you can get in a lot of training for very little money - which is good because you'll need to be well-skilled if you're using it for self-defense. While you should practice proper shot placement with every caliber, with .22 LR, you already behind the power curve.
    In addition, firearms chambered in this caliber have hardly any recoil. Even when fired from the smallest guns on the market, the .22 LR is seriously easy to control. Since this caliber is easy to handle, it also makes getting quick, accurate follow-up shots easier, too. Having a gun that's easy to shoot effectively can be a huge deal, especially for a new shooter. The most significant disadvantage of .22LR for self-defense is the rimfire system. Rimfire rounds tend to be less reliable than centerfire rounds. A round failing to ignite can be a significant issue. The second issue that most .22 LR fails to expand when they strike a soft target and can have penetration issues. You’ll need premium grade ammo for defensive purposes for your .22 LR. I strongly recommend the CCI Velocitor copper plated hollow point in addition to Browning & Winchesters offering of the same loading they are fastest most accurate 40 grain hollow point on the market , Their velocity is 1435 fps it Hits hard penetrates deep and leaves a significant wound channel. I think 4 shots into the torso and 1 shot to the head or neck in close quarters would render an attacker totally incapacitated if it don't put a few more shots into them .
    I carry the Ruger LCP .22LR Pistol as my EDC back up .I trust it if needed ,I am confident multiple .22 LR shots into the head neck torso or below the belt line will stop an attacker dead in their tracks. The Heart Lungs Liver Spleen & Spine, Stomach major arteries all reside in the Torso .The Neck the Juggler vein , Throat Spine reside there .The Head the brain and brain stem reside there . At close quarters the .22lr Hand gun is deadly when multiple shots strike these areas.

      "many people lack the strength to effectively handle even a .380 ACP." It's not a lack of strength, it's a lack of desire. lol. Even big, tough, former/current LE and MIL bloggers and youtubers have LITERALLY posted that they don't like taking their LCP II .380 (or similar) to the range. Their words - not mine - they call it "chippy" or "snappy" or say that it really "barks" and they say they do regular obligatory refresher shots through it since they carry it for self defense, but that they don't want to use it for more than a mag or so. They describe it as punishing after awhile.
      Having heard all of that I had to ask myself why in the world I'd spend good money on a gun I don't enjoy shooting. So I got the .22lr version and, predictably, it shoots like a dream (in terms of recoil) and is fun to plink with. And VERY easy to introduce to new shooters.
      All of that means a) I spend more time on the range actually shooting it, which means b) I'm more trained with it, and c) I get tighter groups faster, ...easily. Even one handed (R or L).
      i.e. it's more accurate. Which, several of those gun enthusiast bloggers reviewing the LCP II in 22lr echoed - saying they shot tighter groups, faster, with the 22lr than with their EDC pocket guns chambered in .380 on up.
      Several of them still said they wouldn't EDC the 22lr, preferring the larger calibers, but then there are more than a few that have posted actual gel or clay penetration and expansion results with various loads and found the 22lr to be close, if not the same, in terms of "effectiveness" and yet had WAY less recoil and less cost. Plus, there are others that point to the historical data on shootings that don't prove the 22lr to be any less effective at stopping an opponent than most of the common EDC rounds. Assuming, of course, you hit center mass or head. (which you do, more often, with an easily controlled round you spend more time with)
      That said, I just got my LCP22 and I hate it. Love to shoot it when it fires. But at least several rounds per magazine don't go off. Duds. From Winchester, Remington, even Aguila Interceptor. So I don't know if it's the gun or the rimfire ammo, but I don't have the time/money to buy box after box of ammo just to do "testing."
      EDIT: switched to Federal match ammo and wow - failures went away. Fired about 5 mags, no failures. Switched back to Aguila : instantly had duds againin first mag. Switched back to Federal and have stayed with it. And the best part? Its much cheaper!
      It's too unreliable for carry, and if you have clear a dud or two every mag, it's not for plinking, either. So I'm considering a .32 ACP pocket gun, hoping that by switching to centerfire, I won't have any more issues. My Kimber 9mm has never had a failure of any kind - EXCEPT when I tried a box of very short-nosed, flat hollowpoint. When I switched back to a long-nosed hollowpoint, it fed fine. And my .38 special revolver, of course, has NEVER had ANY problems. If it wasn't such a brick compared to the LCP II, I'd never be looking at pocket guns. And if the S&W 34c (.22lr) revolver with 8 rounds wasn't rimfire, I'd switch to THAT in a heartbeat. Even AT the ridiculous $800 price tag. 8 rounds is all you need, and a revolver will NEVER fail (and neither will the shooter once you've broken in the DAO trigger).

    I just finished installing the spring kit. The extractor and firing pin springs went in easy peasy (like you said). The hammer spring went in fairly easy to because I used rubber bands to hold all the loose parts in place, except the safety. Safety kept falling on the table and ground. Fortunately I was able to find it each time. Once I removed the hammer and hammer spring, the new spring installed easily. I removed all the rubber bands and held the parts together with my fingers and inserted the whole works into the frame. The rest was easy. Now the gun works fine. I'll see if it shoots fine the next time I'm at the range.

      The spring kit and trigger are not designed or advertised to lessen the trigger pull weight. The spring kit is designed to make the 22LR more reliable by increasing the striking power and addressing the extraction issues requiring increased rate hammer and extractor springs, not reduced. The Sigurd Trigger is designed to shorten the trigger pull only and not reduce the pull weight.

      You can grind the side of the 1/16 punch down to allow it to slide through the partial hole or bend the hook on the hammer spring to rotate it off the pin, our spring is open enough to rotate on in place in case that is needed.

    My only question I have. Will this cause the firing pin to wear faster or break? I only ask because I have read a few people say that their firing started to peen a little shortly after install. I done have the kit I just wanted to make sure before installing it.
    Edit: I installed the kit and took out the mag disconnect along the way. I will report back when I take my next range visit. Anyone complaining about the video down below, all you have to do is listen along. You don't have to see HOW he's pushing the pins out, or the process of him replacing the parts. Wheverever you took the part out is where you put the new one. If it is that hard to understand you really shouldn't be doing this yourself to begin with. I've never done this before and it was done in less than an hour with a proper punch set.

I have almost 1800 rounds of CCI standard through it with only 2 malfunctions and they were dud rounds from the same box. I thought they were light strikes at first but I tried to fire those rounds in my CMMG .22lr conversion kit for my AR. They did not fire. All other ammo I have tried with mine has had various malfunctions. Failure to feed, stove pipes, failure to eject, bad ammo. Might be sheer luck but I definitely trust the standards in my gun. I also have had good luck with the Federal Punch that others have stated does not work in their gun.
