Hey guys,
I need some more insight on your Salvimar hero/metal triggers and experience using them under loads.
Ive gotten the gun quite recently and its been a love hate relationship so far to the point I simply don't trust the trigger.
First thing first:
- the locking/safety mechanism was very hard to lock/unlock OUT of the box. Impossible to do with 1 finger. Currently I need to use shaft butt to press it.
Yes - I DONT use lock/safety ever as precaution but I find it unreasonable.
An unlocked safety was also blocking the trigger from the box, weird?
- the standard bands are 16mm 325%, for a wahoo its a bit underpowered so I replaced them with cressi small ID 14mm at 350-360% and here starts the hate relationship - the trigger become quite hard to the point that I literally dont know when it will go off and on top of that it influences the precision as you start pushing the trigger really hard...
- line release mechanism movement is hard to explain, smooth but needs pressure applied, is your experience the same?
Salvimar advertise the mech to loads up to 350kg and very smooth experience, yet I feel like im shooting my omer cayman GI completly overpowered by double 14mm.
At 350kg should easily sustain 3 bands setup...
I hope you guys can share some experiences, is it a faulty mech or thats how it is.
