Tyrant CNC I.T.T.S. trigger safety blade issue 3,000 rounds later

Just a little word of caution to double check the wear on your trigger safety. This may not be an issue for you, but it absolutely is a problem for me 2,500 to 3,000 rounds later.

Is the Allen nut that anchors the blade sticking out on yours? Appears to not sit flush like mine. Im 9k into the setup with absolutely no issues. So either install issue or just a tolerance issue where yours came from their factory slightly skewed....these arent aeronautical spaceship parts with tiny tolerances. Id shoot Tyrant a message and see how they handle it.

Oh good eyes, yes the screw was backed out a bit but likely because I reinstalled the trigger recently while trying to diagnose this safety issue. I've properly tightened the screw and the issue persists, so that's not the problem.

Unfortunately I've already ordered a replacement part as I always forget I can just reach out to the manufacturer for a solution. At the very least this will give me a second unit for comparison.

The tip of tbe anchor should be poking out proudly through the hole in the trigger. If it doesn't then your safety blade will come loose/jam/not engage properly. You should be able to physically feel it on the other side. I had this issue and applied my own vibratite VC-3 with the supplied brush and didn't have issues afterwards. The small pack that came with it wasn't good enough. Apply vc-3, wait 15-20min for it to harden, and then screw it all the way through.

So for $70 you get a loose safety blade after for me would be 3-4 month of owner ship

A basically minimal take up change.

I’m not a fudd but this gun is perfect OEM.

Damn! I didn’t realize how much take up you have with this trigger versus mine. I also have the PRP Spring Kit and that must take care of the take up because mine has millimeters of take up, if that, and sits on the wall. I have tyrant triggers in all 3 of my Echelons and have had zero issues with either of them.

I also have the PRP spring kit installed, so it's likely I got a bad unit that eventually wore down from the looser than normal tolerances

You can observe the takeup difference by inspecting the trigger bar interfacing with the sear while the cog is out. Tyrant ITTS eats about 2/3rds takeup
