Mini-14 Trigger Job: “The Yoda G Mod”

By admin on August 26, 2010, 5:19 am


It only took me 28 years to finally get a really nice trigger in a Mini-14. It was something I always wanted to do but never go around to do doing…until now! Here experienced Impact Guns gunsmith Terry Gardner (call sign from me: “Yoda G”) opens up his shop and candidly shows his technique on achieving a crisp, 2-stage 3.5 lb trigger pull on this Mini-14 Tactical model. Don’t kid yourself though. While Terry makes it look easy and downplays the difficulty, there will be many opportunities for you to dick it up if you try it yourself (I’ve learned this on other guns myself). Without the over-travel stop, the cost is $65, shipping of your trigger group not included. Is it worth it? Absolutely. In hard cored Nutnfancy RunNGuns, this little Mini-14 Tactical (later DuraCoated in “Sagebrush” color by me) rocked out some impressive scores (results shown). Will it compensate for your bad technique? Nope. Trigger and breath control are always key to connecting accurately, stress or no stress. But this trigger job will make it easier to fire quicker and connect more readily at extended ranges (200 yds for example). And just as important, it will increase your pride of ownership in your Mini and impress your friends too. That’s a lot of value for $65. ///////////////////////// Music: www.torley.com /////////////// Shipping information: Impact Guns, Attn: Terry G from TNP, 2710 South 1900 West, Ogden, Utah 84401, 801-393-2474, EX 306 or (phones 888-505-3086 or 801-409-1021 too

    Just got my trigger group back from Terry and I couldn’t be happier . My Mini-30′s trigger feels nearly as crisp as that of a bolt-action .
    Thanks Terry and Impact arms , hope to do business again soon .

    I sent my mini 14 trigger to Terry to get the same service done. I just got it back, so I took it to the range and could not believe the results. I now have a Mini 14 with a smooth, crisp trigger that is 100 times more fun to shoot. Thanks Terry for the awesome job and thanks to Nutnfancy for posting this video.

    @NickDenning3 Check out the Kel Tec SU-16C series of vids by Nutnfancy, he speaks very highly of them and compares them directly to the Mini-14s.

    If he is not confident his AR will run fine with Wolf of Silver, maybe he needs to pick a better AR.
