Just put a 3/32 double ferrule on your triggah wires.

This application makes those wires very stout.

How many of Yinz have a broken wire on your conibears ??

This set up helps prevent broken triggah wires.

Good tip Nessy.
Twisting the wires together a few times at the base helps too.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Twist them counterclockwise in Canada right?


I have nothing clever to put here.

When i install the stainless steel Terminator Triggers, I don't have broken wires. I've had some on my body grips over ten years and they're still good.

Yinz?! What's a Yinz? Is that some kind of Yankee racist slang? If its just used against the Eskimos, I'm good with it I suppose.
