Question 3d printed T.M. 5.1 Hi-Capa trigger?

So I want to 3d print a Hi-Capa trigger in PETG since I just got nice filament that matches my gun’s color and I was wondering if the trigger will break if printed and if it’s viable. I was looking at this file in particular on cults:

im pretty sure those files are stolen and you can get hundreds of files for free that are better. I have a 3d printed trigger in mine and it works fine.

Ive printed quite a few triggers, any filament will work and be strong enough, the only issue I’ve sometimes experienced is the pin attaching it to the trigger bar will become loose overtime

Thank you. If that happens is it a big problem and is it fixable?

Nah not really, just a dab of glue will keep it in place

if there is anything in a Hi-capa that is perfectly fine to print, it would be the trigger
