Absolutely Awsome vid.!Need more indepth like this one.Maybe get him to do a trigger on a Ruger SR40C or SR9C or the ant of the SR series along with the AR15.This Guy kicks butt on gunsmithing.Just let him explain why he's doing what he is doing more!
Love your vids just wish youd let the expert talk more and explain what he's doing, sequence of steps, we missed a lot of that due to the endless commentary. Still thankful for your time though, just want to hear MORE Terry, less small talk on questions all but newbees already know.
Best video on the 1911 so far. I have looked. The Taurus is popular because it comes with all the bells and whistles competitors need but the ones I have looked at are far from hand fitted after assembly. I have two and both had the need to push the grip safety ALL the way in to fire. That was fixed by stepping the tab on the safety to allow the trigger bow to pass. Then straightening the spring so it was only bend on the bottom so it didn't dig into the safety.
@shooterqqqq The safety was also polished so the tip of the spring didn't dig in. The problem now is the trigger at 8 lbs. That was corrected by polishing but it's still a five lb trigger. I ordered a jig from Brownells and they had Terry's for than 30 dollars. I went with the Marvel at 67. The 2nd Taurus I owned was returned to the factory and destroyed because they couldn't fix the accuracy problem and was replaced. I now have two matching 1911's waiting for the jig. Thanx to you and Terry.
I found this very fun and informational to watch. Although I don't think I would attempt any of this anytime soon but I might in the future but more importantly I like to see what all goes into the fine art of gun smithing. Being a 1911 Owner I found this very entertaining.
lol at 22:55 he's getting hammer follow. WC value line sear is crap. mine did the same thing. the sear nose is too long so the slide barely pushes the hammer back far enough to engage the hammer hooks. les bear parts worked much better for me.
This could be a good video on how to do a trigger job on the 1911, but the constant drivel coming out of nutin's mouth makes it difficult to watch. I usually like Nutin's reviews, but this one is screaming for a redo!
I have to admit, as one other comment mentioned, that I am becoming quite a fan of Nut... a bit of a chatty fella, but when its your passion, well, its your passion! I enjoy the variety of videos and was particularly intrigued with this one. I have done numerous trigger jobs and I really enjoyed watching such a skilled craftsman at work. His attention to detail and methodical form is nice to see. PS, I would love to go to the range with you some day Nut! You always have fun. Cheers!
I have a Kimber Super Carry Custom and I love it! Never had any issues. Also a Grand Raptor 2. Both are amazing. I got them because I love the quality and reliability. Wonderful pieces.
Question, Changing the barrel on the 1911, barrel link and pin, how do you figure out exactly what length of link you want for perfect lock up? how could I contact yoda and ask this question?
very interesting, and i have a question, if changing out my stock hammer from a rock island armory 1911 to a wilson combat value line hammer, is it mandatory to change the sear?
From what I understand, it's a good idea to keep all your parts the same age and the same amount of wear on them. But you don't have to change the sear. As long as all parts interact with each other in the correct way, there's no difference between an old sear and a new one. But like I said wear and tear is something to consider.
What happened to the hammer at 22:56 and 23:05 into the video. It looks like the hammered followed the slide? I thought that was suppose to be fixed. Were my eyes playing tricks on me.
@cyclops5276 good catch.... I had the same problem with my 1911 and I don't know what I did to fix it but I would like to know what happened as well. If I had to guess I would say it has something to do with the grip spring thinggie lol the tree prong spring that is under the grip safety.... I don't know if it's the middle leaf or the right side (when the spring is inside the gun).
@cyclops5276 the hammer did follow the slide forward, i am not sure why it did that. i am a machinist and the tolerances on internal parts of a firearm are withing a few thousandths of an inch (for reference a human hair is .003 or 3 thousandths of an inch). as well as different gun manufacturers have different tolerance controls on there parts, so a taurus frame with wilson combat internal parts may have conflicting tolerances so what your seeing could be causing that
Hammer follow can be from not having enough tension on the sear spring; but the main cause of hammer follow is shock moving the trigger enough to bump the sear. Usually you can get around this by increasing the amount of take up. If that doesn't work you can lighten the trigger decreasing it's inertia. Less inertia does make the trigger move with shock easier but it also makes it stop easier, able to be overcome by the spring.
I'm not a gunsmith, so I'm not certain, I just study.
ive watched this video many times, being a gunsmith is a true art form. Being a Engineer as well as a machinist if the part is off by a few thousandths of an inch it will not work or be safe. For reference a human hair on the top of your head is roughly .003. Terry knows what he is doing always checking and rechecking his work and only taking small amounts off at a time (its easier to take small amounts of metal off at a time because you cannot put it back on)
I didn't trust myself doing the work so I had a pro do it and it was worth the money. 3.25 pound pull on mine and my accuracy went way up. Colt series 80. 1911 great design and the longest running design.
GREAT VIDEO!!! Master Craftsmen are always impressive. Keep up the good work, NutN. If anyone was bored with this series they don't appreciate the talent displayed...both gunsmith and videographer =0)
Im starting to become a big fan of nutnfancy i can tell becuase now when im thinking about buying a gun or just interested in it im signing on to youtube to see if hes put it threw some sort of test already an seeing how it perform's compared to going out an buying it myself and being disapointed..and as far as the gunsmith goes from the video an listening to his aboundance of knowledge from this he hes good,,reminds me of watchin my dad work on 1911's (he was the weapons specialist for delta)
I'm turning 18 withiin a couple days and I get my first handgun its a PT1911, and its my baby also haha, I'd be breathing down terrys neck if I were doodle haha
I gotta side with doodle 1911's are awesome! Him and I actually have some stuff in common, including our looks hahaha. Anyone notice that number 3 cup sitting back there? Dale Earnhardts the man. Cool vid nutn very interesting to us 1911 fans
The only sad thing of showing all of what Terry's doing, is that now it gives us, the consumer, the power to do this stuff ourselves, which is great for us, but takes away from what these guys spend learning how to do this.
@corpselikeangel While he is good at what he does, let's not get carried away. There are machines out there far more complex and finnickey than a 1911 pistol. There are machinists and metal-smiths far more exacting and skilled than most (if not all) production shop gunsmiths. There are plenty of free resources and with a little engineering and mechanical ability, it isn't tough to figure this stuff out.
Terry seems to have the knowledge and confidence to work the parts. This behind the scenes video was informative and interesting. I have a better understanding of the internal relationship of the parts for a 1911 after watching this.
I'm not a 1911 guy, but I have a 1911 (in the house); it's nice, but I'd rather use the S&W M&P Compact (which I am accurate enough to win a snowblower for my family)
@silvermediastudio Unless I missed it, I didn't see any "slingshotting," which to me is when you let the recoil spring throw the slide forward such as by releasing the slide stop.
I saw him "slamming" (moving, riding, whatever) the slide forward while holding it. While it might be similar since there's no cartridge to buffer the shock, I don't think it's the same as what he said to avoid. Not the same enough to say he's doing exactly that, in my opinion anyway.
@silvermediastudio it looked to me like he was riding the slide forward with his hand to slow it down ever so slightly, but even if he wasn't, modifications to the trigger and hammer mechanisms are extremely non-trivial with regard to safety and it's very important to "pressure test" their function to ensure that a malfunction will not occur to these critical parts.
People get way too worked up over the complexity of a trigger job. If you've ever worked in a machine shop, or have some mechanical ability, this stuff isn't rocket science. You detail strip and polish the mating surfaces, most people could do it in an afternoon. Removing metal to improve feel is a bit more dicey, but as you can see it isn't exactly difficult, just go slow and deliberate. Don't use a Dremel if you aren't experienced like this guy.
Great video man. It's hard to work on something when someone is talking in the background, but the old man did it! I like how he pays high attention to detail. I gotta find a gunsmith with his level of skill in my area....eh
I love this vid. I've been looking for a vid. like this for a while. I'd love to do this type of work. Love the 1911s and I would love to be a gun smith. Thanks for this great vid. It would be very cool to train with Terry.
... There is no need to reach perfection because first use and you no longer have perfection. It's a losing battle that the elitists are frustrated about. Everyone should put their work in a glass case and not touch it - just honor the work. The elitists on the 1911 forum are mental midgets.
... then why do they ever accept the parts that come from the factory as substandard? Why does any trigger job need to be done by anyone? Why do they have work at all? By their way of thinking, they should be calling every gun maker and every parts maker "hacks" and reject working on ANYTHING. Secondly, if their work is so perfect, they should never allow their work to be used because use will degrade their perfect work. Terry sees art that will be used. ...
... I have no doubt that the frame was the part that was out of round. You can't watch the video and FEEL the parts and spew your armchair quarter backing. The elitists need to get real. They say you should never do a job differently than what they preach. They say their way is perfect and the only way and anything else is a hack. Here is the bottom line question for their thinking. If any other way of improving the parts in a 1911 are substandard and they don't except them, ...
...to use a file is cause that was all that existed in "OLD TIMERS DAY" Likewise, why is it so critical not to modify the gun frame and modify the part instead? Because back in the day some old dude stood at a machine and milled the frame of the gun. And it was high quality work that was REVERED! Today they are cut by CNC in thirteen seconds (or cast and then milled) Terry knows this and knows that the part is of higher quality than a TAURUS frame! ...
Yes the elitists have a bunch of their "wisdom" to share about these videos. They go by the book no matter what and anything that varies, they will berate. They also want to charge you a price for a trigger job that exceeds the value of this gun! Terry is an artist. He can use a dremel tool instead of a file to save time and his experience allows this. The elitists say you have to use a file. Why? Just because DREMEL TOOLS DID NOT EXIST back in 1911? The reason they THINK you need...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
for all those people who actually know what terry is doing, is he doing it right?? I read some where that he isn't good, and that his work sucks. is that true?? i know NOTHING about gunsmith work so I can't judge him. does it seem like he's doing good stuff or is doing sloppy work compared to other gunsmiths?
No matter what you see online, you will always have people who "know better". As brockXroberts states above, Terry is an artist and knows exactly what he is doing. Nutn would NEVER take his guns to someone who wasn't.. -- Veri (Nutn's sister)
@nutnfancy Great video, thanks for the great camera work looking at the parts inside. Terry is good at what he does. I might have missed it but what was Impact Guns address. Thanks.
@nutnfancy Watching carefully, from a mechanical engineers perspective it looks like Terry is going about these modifications in exactly the right way.
@nutnfancy Yeah Terry G has skills only years of experience can get you. Not like the majority of the gunsmiths who took an online course and thats it. But realistically the people that are going to go to Terry arent the ones who will listen to youtube's keyboard commandos. Nutn has good taste in smiths and hell I wouldnt drive that far if it werent worth it either.
Hey nutn, i am wondering how this 1911 ranks now with all you modifications? How drastic is the improvement over out of the box? I am looking into getting a 1911 and this Taurus is the only one I could possibly afford. If i do get it i would want to have it modded in a smiler way. Thanks for all the Vids God Bless.
@du9207 Yes he is. And he is explaining it as he goes along, taking the time to answer questions, and doing so at his cost. I'm sure Terry could do 2 jobs in the time it took to film this so we should give him a big thumbs up for enlightening us a bit. I've used this video to tune up an airsoft 1911 and it made a massive difference to the trigger. I'd leave the real steel to a gunsmith though ;)
@du9207 I think he´s doing everything correctly, deburr everthing and get the working parts as smooth as possible, I have done this on my Colt 1911A1 1943, and it´s as smooth a silk, (with the Wilson combat recoil system) beautiful gun shoots accuratly up to 140 yards (belive it or not).
@du9207 In my opinion (15+ years of firearms experience), this guy is pretty good. He uses the right tools, is careful and continuously checks the results of slow, iterative modifications. I would trust him with my 1911s.
For the most part he's spot on, save a couple minor points;
1) The Wilson Value Line parts are MIM, check out their web site.
2) In stoning the 2nd angle on the sear, one should not lay the whole sear on the stone. As you will not only take metal off the sear nose, where you should, but you will also take metal off the lug where the safety contacts.
@du9207 I am a gunsmith in southern Arizona, and have been for several years. I was also an armorer for the USAF. Terry seems to be a competent smith, but one thing bothered me. By taking that stone to the hammer in part one he created a neutral fit. As I was taught, all sear/hammer relationships have to be positive, if only slightly. Everything else is done very well and I would trust him to work on my weapon as well.
@du9207 the only way to know is to be a gunsmith yourself and have years of experience doing it. everybody can talk the talk but can they walk the walk?
@du9207 After watching these videos, this gunsmith looks just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous. The Ed Brown jig sucks (sorry, Ed) and doesn't cut square, plus it's a pain to use. Stoning hammer hooks by hand is a very bad idea, they won't end up square or consistent. He also uses the wrong stones. Most competent gunsmiths won't go anywhere near a Taurus. Sorry, Nutnfancy, but I bet I'm not the only one you've heard this from.
@bddc201 a lot of people have sent me messages saying otherwise. But ok, I guess you do know, like i said earlier I don't know about this so that's why I asked. Also, why the heck did my comment receive so many thumbs down??? I was asking an honest question, I wasn't saying terry sucks, he knows more than I'll ever know about gunsmiting. Seriously people, read my entire comment, I never said Terry actually sucks. All i'm doing is asking if he's doing a good job. Cant even do that these days
@du9207 To you, it was just a harmless question, but if you think about it, you're questioning a man's reputation and his living..his expertise and training, and everything he stands for. To me, and apparently many others out there, its EXTREMELY disrespectful to state that you "read some where" blah blah blah (insert negative content here). Its a sign of the times that people don't even GET how disrespectful it is...
ok i've been having problems trying to respond to this on my phone but i'm here now. what you just wrote is the biggest piece of crap I have read so far. How the heck am i being negative by asking how he's doing?? let's say your car messes up and need a mechanic, you ask your neighbor about the shop down the street and he says the mechanic didn't do a good job on his car. If you ask someone else about the shop and say you heard something bad about them, is that bad?
continued...either the mechanic has a good reputation or he doesn't. If you mention that someone's had a bad experience that doesn't mean your out to harm the mechanic. I straight up said I didn't know how he was doing and read a bad review, what's wrong with that? I can't mention the bad stuff about Terry? why? just because Nut' likes him?
@du9207 You never did mention "bad stuff" about Terry..you didn't have any FACTS to support bad stuff. What you did was question him WITHOUT ANY FACTS...what you did was empty speculation, which is why it was idiotic. You didn't have a bad experience...nor did you know ANYONE else who did. There was NO SUBSTANCE TO YOUR SPECULATION. How hard is that to understand? What you're doing is GOSSIP...not review. Now, go away, this was a week ago and I'm tired of you. Seriously.
65-75 dollars for the work ..60+ dollars (+insurance) for overnight shipping (required for handguns)....to send it to a smith if you don't live near one you trust...all for a gun that is ADVERTIZED as having a 100 dollar "trigger job"?....He had to stone the piss out of your sear just to make it square!.and you mention your gun falling to half-cock?....600 bucks sounds good till you find out that you basically have to replace half the internals to get what they advertise as included. I'll pass.
@ipscjoe Negative. When nutn fitted some aftermarket parts he had the half cock fall. Out of the box it was a good shooting gun watch the reviews before you start in on something you don't fully understand.
Re-watch the video.......they mention it fell to half cock BEFORE it was brought to the smith........
Just the mere fact that we are discussing a junk 600 dollar gun shows YOU have no understanding........Junk is junk and you get what you pay for.......If thats all you can afford, then by all means by a couple :)
@ipscjoe What? I think you need to re-watch. The gun and trigger worked fine originally. Then nutnfancy and doodle installed the aftermarket parts themselves but had problems due to fitting (common with many 1911s and such parts). So they put the stock parts back in until they could bring it to Terry to install them properly.
I have a question.. Can has he ever worked on a double stack style 1911? I would love to have him completely tear down and re-do my Para Ordnace P-10. I wanna get this trigger job and hammer on my 1911 as well.
I called and talked to Terry G. yesterday. Great guy...I'm going to send him my PT-1911 to get some work done like this. I'm sure I could find someone here in Alabama, but you just can't beat the work of a true craftsman.
@auburntaco Check out Accurate Plating & Weaponry (Bob Cogan) in Newville, AL. They do fine work. Not sure how far that is for you but he does sick 1911 work. Goggle him and you will see many happy customers.
exquisite video. i just got a kimber custom 2 and was wondering what i can do if anything to improve it. this video is exactly what i needed. im a machinist who has taken an interest in gunsmithing so i can appreciate the skill necessary to do this work. i will send my gun to terry thanks to you.
GREAT! i didnt find it boring which means im a 1911 guy too... tnxs for making this vid and also for Terry who's kind to let us watch...keep it up guys!
Great video! Very insightful! I've been thinking about getting a trigger job done on my EDC 1911 (Para LTC). I think Terry might be the man for the job.
I find this video kindof ironic. Tac doodle and Nutn are having their 1911 smithed to do away with the ambi safety. I on the other hand had to put an ambi safety on my kimber 1911. I hate being left handed. Different people have different needs.
Actually, I very much recommend hard chroming a gun, including the internals, as a way to increase longevity. Quality Hard Chrome is extremely hard (Rockwell C exceeding 70 in some cases), very durable, and will reduce the chances of galling, etc.
WOW, $65???!!! For that kind of attention? All those years of knowledge, experience?! The man's hands should be insured for a $million, forget what he carries around with him in his brain! Can you really think of money better spent than that? There is no part you can buy off the shelf that will do what a master can do - I don't care if its a gun, an engine, a guitar, whatever. I LOVED THIS VIDEO - MORE PLEASE! If this is boring you should get that ADD looked at, or rethink your passions.
Great video. What Im amazed by is that they designed this gun 100 years ago and its used by SWAT now. How many other machines that were designed back in horse and buggy times are still being issued to a HI Tecg force like LA Swat.
the hammer didn't follow from inertia it was because the trigger bow was too long and wasn't allowing the disconnector to work reliability which is exactly why the smith said he had to add more pre-travel to the trigger so it resets each time.
I'm not a huge fan of 1911's, I like 'em, but I'm no fan. Still, I LOVED this video. I loved it so much I am actually thinking about changing job and doing that instead! lol.
It looks so cool. plying with guns, tweaking stuff, etc. really nice!
I "attempted a trigger jobon my sw40v and f's it up so that the trigger wouldn't reset.....damn dremel got hungry and ate too much metal....had to send it back to s&w and they fixed it for me for free (thank god)
Boys, this man knows what he's doing. Watch this video and pay attention if you decide to F**K with your pistol. He's a pro.

@graysmoke89
From what I understand, it's a good idea to keep all your parts the same age and the same amount of wear on them. But you don't have to change the sear. As long as all parts interact with each other in the correct way, there's no difference between an old sear and a new one. But like I said wear and tear is something to consider.

@cyclops5276 the hammer did follow the slide forward, i am not sure why it did that. i am a machinist and the tolerances on internal parts of a firearm are withing a few thousandths of an inch (for reference a human hair is .003 or 3 thousandths of an inch). as well as different gun manufacturers have different tolerance controls on there parts, so a taurus frame with wilson combat internal parts may have conflicting tolerances so what your seeing could be causing that

@shady75boy
I have a feeling the hammer follow is because he decreased the trigger take up so much.
bbryant0620 11 months ago
@shady75boy In my experience, hammer follow is usually from the wrong sear angle.
bddc201 10 months ago
@shady75boy it was the trigger bow tab thats why he gave it more it wasnt allowing the trigger to reset
tfoshohoe 6 months ago
@cyclops5276
Hammer follow can be from not having enough tension on the sear spring; but the main cause of hammer follow is shock moving the trigger enough to bump the sear. Usually you can get around this by increasing the amount of take up. If that doesn't work you can lighten the trigger decreasing it's inertia. Less inertia does make the trigger move with shock easier but it also makes it stop easier, able to be overcome by the spring.
I'm not a gunsmith, so I'm not certain, I just study.

ive watched this video many times, being a gunsmith is a true art form. Being a Engineer as well as a machinist if the part is off by a few thousandths of an inch it will not work or be safe. For reference a human hair on the top of your head is roughly .003. Terry knows what he is doing always checking and rechecking his work and only taking small amounts off at a time (its easier to take small amounts of metal off at a time because you cannot put it back on)

The only sad thing of showing all of what Terry's doing, is that now it gives us, the consumer, the power to do this stuff ourselves, which is great for us, but takes away from what these guys spend learning how to do this.
corpselikeangel 1 year ago
@corpselikeangel While he is good at what he does, let's not get carried away. There are machines out there far more complex and finnickey than a 1911 pistol. There are machinists and metal-smiths far more exacting and skilled than most (if not all) production shop gunsmiths. There are plenty of free resources and with a little engineering and mechanical ability, it isn't tough to figure this stuff out.

Nutn, why is your trigger finger halfway through the trigger guard? Do you always shoot like that?
Also at the end, Terry is slingshotting the slide on an empty chamber, after you just spoke about not doing it. hmm
silvermediastudio 1 year ago
@silvermediastudio Unless I missed it, I didn't see any "slingshotting," which to me is when you let the recoil spring throw the slide forward such as by releasing the slide stop.
I saw him "slamming" (moving, riding, whatever) the slide forward while holding it. While it might be similar since there's no cartridge to buffer the shock, I don't think it's the same as what he said to avoid. Not the same enough to say he's doing exactly that, in my opinion anyway.
Very cool video!

@aznazguy Starting at 26:14, he racks the slide on an empty chamber six times.
silvermediastudio 1 year ago
@silvermediastudio it looked to me like he was riding the slide forward with his hand to slow it down ever so slightly, but even if he wasn't, modifications to the trigger and hammer mechanisms are extremely non-trivial with regard to safety and it's very important to "pressure test" their function to ensure that a malfunction will not occur to these critical parts.
CypherAod 1 year ago
People get way too worked up over the complexity of a trigger job. If you've ever worked in a machine shop, or have some mechanical ability, this stuff isn't rocket science. You detail strip and polish the mating surfaces, most people could do it in an afternoon. Removing metal to improve feel is a bit more dicey, but as you can see it isn't exactly difficult, just go slow and deliberate. Don't use a Dremel if you aren't experienced like this guy.

brockXroberts 2 years ago
... then why do they ever accept the parts that come from the factory as substandard? Why does any trigger job need to be done by anyone? Why do they have work at all? By their way of thinking, they should be calling every gun maker and every parts maker "hacks" and reject working on ANYTHING. Secondly, if their work is so perfect, they should never allow their work to be used because use will degrade their perfect work. Terry sees art that will be used. ...

They say you should never do a job differently than what they preach. They say their way is perfect and the only way and anything else is a hack. Here is the bottom line question for their thinking. If any other way of improving the parts in a 1911 are substandard and they don't except them, ...

...to use a file is cause that was all that existed in "OLD TIMERS DAY" Likewise, why is it so critical not to modify the gun frame and modify the part instead? Because back in the day some old dude stood at a machine and milled the frame of the gun. And it was high quality work that was REVERED! Today they are cut by CNC in thirteen seconds (or cast and then milled) Terry knows this and knows that the part is of higher quality than a TAURUS frame! ...

Yes the elitists have a bunch of their "wisdom" to share about these videos. They go by the book no matter what and anything that varies, they will berate. They also want to charge you a price for a trigger job that exceeds the value of this gun! Terry is an artist. He can use a dremel tool instead of a file to save time and his experience allows this. The elitists say you have to use a file. Why? Just because DREMEL TOOLS DID NOT EXIST back in 1911? The reason they THINK you need...

I've used this video to tune up an airsoft 1911 and it made a massive difference to the trigger. I'd leave the real steel to a gunsmith though ;)

silvermediastudio 1 year ago
For the most part he's spot on, save a couple minor points;
1) The Wilson Value Line parts are MIM, check out their web site.
2) In stoning the 2nd angle on the sear, one should not lay the whole sear on the stone. As you will not only take metal off the sear nose, where you should, but you will also take metal off the lug where the safety contacts.
samm6262 1 year ago
@du9207 I am a gunsmith in southern Arizona, and have been for several years. I was also an armorer for the USAF. Terry seems to be a competent smith, but one thing bothered me. By taking that stone to the hammer in part one he created a neutral fit. As I was taught, all sear/hammer relationships have to be positive, if only slightly. Everything else is done very well and I would trust him to work on my weapon as well.

@du9207 After watching these videos, this gunsmith looks just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous. The Ed Brown jig sucks (sorry, Ed) and doesn't cut square, plus it's a pain to use. Stoning hammer hooks by hand is a very bad idea, they won't end up square or consistent. He also uses the wrong stones. Most competent gunsmiths won't go anywhere near a Taurus. Sorry, Nutnfancy, but I bet I'm not the only one you've heard this from.

the hammer didn't follow from inertia it was because the trigger bow was too long and wasn't allowing the disconnector to work reliability which is exactly why the smith said he had to add more pre-travel to the trigger so it resets each time.
