Damn Chris you rock man I don’t own the pistol but I want to buy it so I can do that👍😎
I’m so hyped right now!!!! I followed your instructions to a tee and was able fix mine after it became dislodged at my kitchen table and it’s like new! THANK YOU!!!!
Just installed this kit + the stainless steel guide rod + the extra power magazine release spring. MAN dude your products are excellent!!
Nice review. I particularly like the way you present as you move along and I don’t get bored with unnecessary commentary. Well done.
I purchased the components shown in the video and while watching and following I was able to disassemble the pistol, replace the springs and put it back together. Really great detail on the video. Of course, I had to stop the video several times to catch up on the process but the parts all worked flawlessly and the trigger pull is noticeably lighter. Looking forward to getting to the range with this little Ruger.
Thanks Mike! Glad to hear it Brother. I appreciate the feedback and glad to hear it all worked out flawlessly!
Thank you for this video! Super easy to install with your instructions. I did this install for my fathers LCP 2 and wow the trigger is night and day!
Purchased the trigger spring kit for my Kahr CW 380. Can't wait to receive it and install it. Already love your kit for my Sub 2K and my trigger spring for my RDB. All nice stuff!!!
One of the best instructional videos I've ever seen!
Yes we want them (more lcp2 parts) Chris!!!
Great step by step video. Close and detailed shots of what you are doing. Trigger feels amazing now.
Great instructional video! Normally I would not have been interested I doing this little upgrade but as comprehensive of job you did on the video I might buy it.
Very helpful video. Thanks Chris. Your parts have been excellent so far. 👍
Awesome! Thanks Brother for your Support!
Extremely well done. Way to Go Bro. !!!!!
Extremely high quality video. Thanks!
Excellent video as usual !!!!
Thanks for the video. I couldn't have done it without y'all.
Thanks Brother, glad we could help! Happy to have your support!
Also, the lighter firing pin spring will make it LESS drop safe. Since the LCP II doesn't have a physical firing pin blocking design, the drop safety is done via a very light (titanium) firing pin and a strong firing pin spring.
Don't drop it, eh?
It's not fully sprung until the trigger is pulled.
Not really an issue on the lcp2.The firing pin itself will not fire the round dropped or not just does not have enough mass. The danger comes if the hammer strikes it when dropped. Ruger put a safety notch in the hammer to stop that from happening.If something failed or broke when dropped the hammer will be stopped before impacting firing pin. Mcarbo won't like me for saying this but under 3 lbs for a pocket and or defensive gun is way to light. The 5+ on the stock gun is perfect. No not an internet expert 50+ years of experience.
@@barefootbob1269 Personally, I agree with you and I feel it's a bad idea to modify any defensive firearm, and especially to do it yourself. It puts a ton of extra legal liability square on your shoulders and may increase your chance of an ND/UD in a stressful situation. You really don't want to have to explain to a jury why you felt the need to reduce the trigger pull on a purely defensive handgun. This is not a match gun that you want to dial in the perfect trigger weight on. This is a last-ditch defensive tool just a step above bashing your attacker with a big rock. There is no valid need that you're going to be able to articulate to a jury at your trial when/if you ever have to use it.
(also not an Internet expert - former USN Gunner's Mate)
@@life_with_bernie Agree, 100%!!
I may be alone in this but I definitely wouldn't recommend a 2.5lb trigger on a self defense handgun. My PDP is around 4.25lbs and it's borderline too light in my opinion. If anyone decides to do this upgrade you better train on a regular basis (you should be doing that regardless of what you're carrying). Nice video....
Was thinking the same exact thing while watching this install.
I agree completely 👍 Why you would like a light trigger pull on a pocket pistol is beyond me. In a defensive situation I don't think you will be worried about the trigger pull. Now, if they made a product to make the trigger harder to pull, I might be interested🤔🤣Recently got a LCP MAX that has the same short pull and I much prefer the longer and stiffer trigger on my basic LCP. Should have been more careful. Otherwise, it's a great video.
EXTREMELY HELPFUL THANK YOU MUCH
Great Video!
Excellent tutorial.
So simple for a modern firearm. Reminds me of the tech 9
Yes, thanks
Even though I've had no issues with my LCP 2, I was thinking about getting a LCP MAX. I know the "MAX" has more capacity in roughly the same size package, but after watching your video, maybe I'll just upgrade my "2", and save some $$$! 👍😃
Ruger LCP Max Flat Trigger And Spring Kit
I was introduced to M*CARBO when I upgraded my LCP I with their flat trigger and spring kit. It truly transformed a questionable daily carry pistol to my every day carry.
I decided to buy the LCP MAX because of its 10/12 round capacity and the fact it’s slightly wider giving it far greater controllability. The day after I bought it I shipped it to M*CARBO to have their Flat Trigger Upgrade Kit, Trigger Spring Kit, and Upgraded Stainless Steel Guide Rod installed.
Took it to the range for the first time on Saturday and it blew me away how accurate and controllable it is. The take up and break is absolutely perfect for conceal carry. Firing a single shot, fast double taps even ripping 10 rounds fast as I could pull the trigger made no different. All shots hit within the ten ring. IMO beyond impressive for such a small gun.
M*Carbo is the go to place for great innovative products and installation (gunsmith work).
Would not trust my life to anyone else.
Thank you for the kind words brother
Thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Brother, glad you found it useful!
I really liked the Heavy Duty Takedown Pin that had the slot in it (that had to be rotated to be disassembled). I know it had problems... but I think the problems were easily fixable with a better design and/or with a Pin/spring combo kit.
Great Channel ✔
Great upgrade
..I like to use a short length of brass rod as a slave pin to hold springs, etc in place as I replace or fix roll pins, etc...
Man, this was hard to do. I had an extra piece fall off and luckily I found it's place. I also bought a trigger kit for my Maverick 88, but couldn't put the trigger together.
You guys really should make an updated video. My LCP2 has a safety, and I had the slide stop, safety, and safety mechanism pop off on me. It wasn't terribly hard to figure it all out, but if I hadn't worked on a few guns in the past IDK if I'd have been able to get it back together. Also, the roll pin in the slide was horizontal instead of vertical. All that said, thanks for the video. I really appreciate you guys taking the time to help me out.
Have you had any reliability issues since you installed? It would be nice to do this on the .22 version to lighten that trigger since it already has a safety Id prefer a lighter trigger pull.
They started making them with safeties?
The LCP2 in .22LR has a manual thumb safety. The LCP2 in 380acp does not have a manual thumb safety.
One of the BEST video's on this I've seen. I'm considering doing this for lcp2 in 22lr - my only concern is light strikes - anyone experience this after the upgrade?
Very complete and thorough Video. A more consistent focus would be great. I did learn a lot. Thank you very much.
Set up for lcp2 380 is a little different from the setup for lcp2 .22lr had to read manual cuz this video had me little confused
Brilliant video! We’d like to have the same upgrades on our LCP II, since we’re having issues with the trigger. Is there a way to mail you our pistol and have your gunsmiths install the upgrades. Of course we’ll cover S&H to and from and labor?
Hey there I missed placed my slide stop spring is there anyway of getting a new one
Great Video. I followed the video and I have it assembled again. My issues is now the slide will not slide back after I pull the trigger for the first time. Any help would be appreciated.
A similar chassis system on all of their guns I've replaced and done away with magazine disconnect on Ruger ec9s and they look almost the same
22lr is different, will installation video be uploaded? If so, when?
Gotta bring that exposure down a notch
I wished that I had watched this video before I watched the LCP Max one. You seem to be more detailed, especially in the trigger safety blade part.
Took a bit longer as the LCP II 22lr is different with the firing pin retaining roll pin on the sides instead of the top. There is other small parts, the manual safety and it's spring as well as very small rocker. I should have done a video to eliminate the confusion. The hammer spring re-tension sucks, perhaps using a paper clip to get it our of the mag well and on the retaining pin. I would like to get the harden steel take down pin installed at the same time I did all the other work, but it's out of stock right now.
But can't complain about the results, other than the stronger recoil spring, I may do this same fixes to my mother's pistol too!
Yes the .22 lcp II is totally different then this video and not for your average bear-way more involved
The trigger return spring I received was dangerously weak. I ended up putting back in the original. The other springs made little to no difference. Your mileage may vary.
I have two R LCP II 380s I bought them some time ago; the trigger pull on them right out of the box was outstanding and i could not wish for better. However, I just bought the new LCP II in .22RF and the trigger pull in it is over 6 pounds and is horrendous. It also has at least one failure to load or eject per magazine. I have already put it back in the box to trade in at great loss on next pistol. But, would this spring kit work in the .22 RF version? Do the newer LCP II .380s have different trigger pulls?
Could you do a 22lr video. It's significantly different than the 380 version. I'm stuck with the trigger portion. *edit* Finally did it after 5 hours. If anyone else having a hard time removing the trigger safety blade pin, you're going to need something smaller than 1/16 punch. I luckily had a super tiny allen wrench laying around that I used as a makeshift punch.
Appreciate the efforts, good instruction, however the Video quality made it very hard to watch..I've seen many of your videos and they were fine...what changed?? fin it and fix it. Would love to see directions with the 22LR version before I dig in and attempt this change
Helped so much. No homo but I love you thanks for letting me be stress free now
Haha.. Yes Sir, glad we could help!
Only steers and queers in, Texas, and I don't see no steer.
@@MCARBO helped me alot too. I over oiled my gun, and it kept dropping the magazine out. Had to disassemble it and get alot of that oil out of there. Thanks for the help! Definitely wasnt as easy as you made it seem lol
Awesome
Do you have a kit without firing pin spring for Lcp .22 caliber? I’m concerned about light primer if there’s any.
Can I install this on my Ruger LCP 2 chambered in 380 with the stainless steel guide rod from MCARBO & the Galloway Precision 13lb recoil spring & Sigurd short stroke trigger???
I have a Cz scorpion that I put a Franklin armory binary trigger in. It doesn't work in binary mode. Is there a spring kit that would fix it. I've been told that on of the small springs isn't strong enough.
Trigger spring kit is back ordered. Any idea when it will be in stock?
Very helpful. My only complaint is that you decided to record this on the surface of the sun.
Will this video work for the trigger spring kit for the LCP Max also?
Please make a Metal Trigger for this LCP II 380
Any light primer issues on Lcp II .22 caliber?
so, where did my question/comment from yesterday go where I asked about the hammer/sear polishing?
I need a video of putting you short throw flat trigger in I can't find one
Just ordered that triger kit for lcp2...Can you make a video of trigger kit replacement for a SIG p365..
Yes Sir, here it is! czcams.com/video/wnSRXDGudbA/video.html&feature=emb_logo
My Massachusetts compliant has super heavy trigger. Which is stupid. Does this kits applicable to fit. ??? Thank you
Will this kit work with the LCP 2 in 22lr?
any kits for the older one, LCP 1 ?
Does this work with the LCP2 in .22LR?
Do not have the trigger safety on my new LCP will this work?
can you a video on Ruger 22 LR?
You have that pin in stock now?
I've been waiting for it to be back in.
Last part I need to complete my LCP.
Ive been waiting seems like forever too bro...😔
I opened the heavy duty take down pin for the lcp 2 and it looks different than the one shown in this video. It also came with a clip as well. And the notch is much smaller than the one shown in the video and it doesn’t feel like it really locks in place. Just curious if there was a design change since this video?
Bristol Anderson Yes Sir, we improved the design since this video was released. Did you install the new takedown pin spring? We will make an updated video soon.
when are you going to sell a trigger spring kit for the Ruger Security 380?
them 22LR is different // there are 3 more parts from frame disassembly. I am not able to get past 14:00 minutes. Any other video that covers this???
I need to find that part 😫
Opening splash page says LCP/LCP2 Not so.
Great video! Will this kit work on the LCP 2 Max?
No, but if you email or call them you can be put on the notification list for when it releases. I spoke to them recently and they said about 2 months out for launch!
That seems sketchy on the firing pin, that can't be drop safe. Isn't that why the OE is so firm?
I'm guessing this video only applies to the .380 not the .22LR model.
I just purchased a Ruger LCP2 chambered in .22LR do you make a kit for that yet.
We'll have one out shortly.
So explain how you managed to get the trigger to break when checking weight with no mag in the mag well?
The LCP does not have a magazine safety. You can fire the LCP without the magazine in the gun.
Any idea when the takedown pin will be back in stock? I ordered everything except that since it's backordered.
Call into our customer service. They'll fix you up with one. 727-223-1816
@@MCARBO also wanting to purchase, am i able to do a whole order over the phone?
Will this work on the new 22 lr version of the LCP II?
Yes Sir, we have a 22LR option but it's not in stock for another 3-4 weeks.
You'll switch out all these parts then blame all malfunctions on the pistol lol
Agree!
Rightttt😂
Do you guys offer a spring kit for the LCP Max?
No, but if you email or call them you can be put on the notification list for when it releases. I spoke to them recently and they said about 2 months out for launch!
Please explain why Ruger can't incorporate these "fixes" in new sales. Am I missing something here?
Mass production and price competitiveness among other firearm manufacturers.
Hell for a pocket gun w/o a safety I want that trigger as stiff as possible personally
Maybe you could make us an improved trigger? Galloway screwed theirs up and were extremely rude when I brought it to their attention. They did redesign it to fix the problem though, but now the safety blade is too long and hits the trigger guard.
Yes Sir, we've got one in the works now! What did you mention to Galloway about their trigger that got them all upset?
@@MCARBO the safety blade would move side to side so much that it got caught on top of the trigger. Frozen trigger is no bueno. I even tried to tell them multiple ways to easily fix it. I just noticed the other day, after installing your kit, that the "fixed" safety blade is too long and hits the trigger guard inxreasing the pull weight. I'll pull it out and sand it down to be level with the trigger. It just shows how they don't even inspect their designs for flaws before selling. I look forward to your version.
how can i buy that kits and accessories for upgrades my gun. i am in Thailand
Have one of your local gun shops contact us. They can order for you.
Will your trigger kit for the LCP MAX?
No it will not. We've been hard at work designing and testing a kit for the LCP MAX, getting very close to release!
Where can I find this kit for the lcp2.22lr? I couldn't find it on the site
Make sure to select you caliber. www.mcarbo.com/ruger-lcp-2-trigger-spring-kit.aspx
This must for an older model? I just bought a lcp 2 22lr and the firing pin looks totally different. It doesn’t even have a top to bottom hole? Also the takedown pin that Mcarbo shipped me is totally different too? MCARBO what gives?
You have an LCP 22. This is an LCP 380. They're different guns. One is a centerfire and one is a rimfire.
@@timrobinson6573 thank you! I did end up realizing that about 2 days later lol
ill this kit work on the new LCP 22 LR?
Yes Sir, we've got a 22LR version. Will be back in stock in a few weeks.
Will this kit work with the new rimfire LCP 2?
No Sir, but we are working on a 22LR kit for it now
@@MCARBO I will buy it.
does that kit work for the LCP 2 .22 caliber too?
i am going to posit that the lcp2 22lr needs a *heavier* not lighter hammer spring
Hey Scott, we are working on a 22LR kit now
@@MCARBO Going to watch for this. Good to know!
Where's the LCP Max videos??
Ruger Alert-Please let me apologize for missing the internal safety on the Ruger LCP2 of the early pistols-This pistol is totally safe and a fantastic little pistol. a best buy!
Are you being sarcastic or serious? I want to buy this gun.
He is being serious. It has a fairly well hidden drop safety. I carry it everyday and trust my life to it. Former cop and military with a whole lot of weapons experience
Any word on when the LCP 2 .22lr kit is getting made?
Well it's your lucky day! The 22 kit was just released. www.mcarbo.com/ruger-lcp-2-trigger-spring-kit.aspx
@@MCARBO Needs a how to video on .22 as it is very different then .380 inside.
Will this fit the 380 max
No, but if you email or call them you can be put on the notification list for when it releases. I spoke to them recently and they said about 2 months out for launch!
Any problems with light strikes with the lighter hammer spring?
Lighter firing pin spring probably helps to prevent a light strike.
@@GR8SCOTT that sounds backwards
@@burnlikeneon4044 do you know the difference between a hammer spring and a firing pin spring? They do opposite functions.
@@GR8SCOTT No I don't know much about the internals and springs of firearms. I have an SR22 that has over 10 springs in total. I just know it is unfortunate that this pistol (LPC2) suffers from light strikes and I'm looking around to see if there is a solution before I purchase it.
2lbs on a carry gun ? are you sure thats a good idea ?
Will it work on the LCP Max?
No, but if you email or call them you can be put on the notification list for when it releases. I spoke to them recently and they said about 2 months out for launch!
Any Idea if this comes for a EC9?
Yes Sir, we've got a kit for the EC9 here: www.mcarbo.com/ruger-lc9s-ec9s-trigger-spring-kit.aspx
Why don't you tell people that by installing these MCarbo parts in their gun it voids the manufactures warranty. I bought your kit for my PMR30 and installed it then found out it's warranty was voided as well. Very frustrating.
That’s almost standard for any gun manufacturer. C’mon now
