What matrerials did you use and can you bend the trigger?

The blade and the trigger are metal, but the hilt seems to be a resin of some sort. Most likely Polyurethane.The trigger does move on an axle point. It has a spring mechanism that moves it back to the open position.

This All depends on who you purchase it fromIt would be great if people mentioned the buyer that they ordered from, it would be a big help to youIf You Order from SwordAxe - It Will Be High Carbon Steel and yes the trigger Bends

No flexing detected (read; crazy accurate). However, after firing several hundred rounds, it came loose and started to wiggle. I should have used thread lock to begin with. Now that I have re-tightened and put thread lock on, it's back to awesome for good!

Yes, but it was not real successful because it put my hand in an awkward position and made the already stiff trigger pull even harder. I no longer use it.

The one we used with the single stub of wood for the trigger and then two stubs for the barrel worked super well. Only had a single gun to show off. We were able to use a tiny piece of wire attached to the mounts for unseen, added security.

I dunno, I haven't tried em all. Worked with what I had. I removed the this UTG side rail and bought a Russian one from Kalinka. Looks much better.

With a solid 4 mm, washer on the trigger pin, use caution after repair you now have a hair trigger. Repaired my Phantom.177 in same fashion and they work great. Check out YouTube for more in depth videos too!!!

Yes you can bend it. If you use a needle nose pliers you can bend a very small radius. It has no spring tention.

I had to use a dremmel and cut it out a little wider, I did not have the UTG you have actually it's been so long I forgot which kind I have , but it wasn't a problem cutting it but you have to use a dremmel tool, it's tough plastic..worked great

Paul, I was thinking the same thing when I purchased my new Hitachi. I'm very glad now, I didn't buy the single shot trigger kit, the factory one is fine,just don't keep the trigger held down. After using it for a few days I'm very happy with this tool.Good Luck!

I put a piece of sticky back velcro hook on both sides of the handle near the trigger, then put a piece of velcro hook on it. When you hook down the velcro across the trigger it holds it on. Super cheap and works like a champ!

I just bent a sample piece, it will do it, if properly adjusted. But if thats a thickness you will bend a lot a press brake may be a better option. I will add that I have been very happy with this brake. Its perfect for the home shop and I have done some nice work for my race car with it!

Stay with what you have, it is mediocre. Not much of an improvement. Pay a little more for trigger shifts.

Yes, using the trigger. If you haven't bought one of these yet, do it. This is light weight and has a lot of torque + battery lasts a long time. So far I think its the best thing B&D has ever built.

Sorry, I used a Chinese model 53 Carbine Mosin Nagant Style Rifle, Had to do some sanding/Grinding for it to Fit Like I wanted. I have a Hex Barrel 91/30 and the original stock is pretty decent, All serial numbers match,The Hex Receiver is worth more as a collectors Gun, leave it as is,if you can.

Using the Fluid Film gun, just use it as it comes from the can. I haven't tried a regular gun. Probably too thick

I bent mine in various directions and adjusted them to what my needs where. Great flexability and no need to worry about their breakage.GOOD LUCK! :)

i used a piece of a PBR can (square, wrapped around, and 1 ply) as a shim between the post and the clamp. has worked fine so far. scared to adjust it though
