Hi Mr. Werner,

I installed the GRT-4 trigger into my Gamo Socom Carbine last night. The install was very straight forward and went very smoothly! Thank you for fantastic instructions and a great trigger! WOW...what a difference! The trigger is crisp and much lighter than the factory spongy trigger gamo installed. I am looking forward to putting it on paper to see the improvement in accuracy, then into the field to thin out our coot population!

Again, Sir, Thank you for a great product!

 Mr. Werner 

 I just got done installing my GRT-4G trigger and it could not have been easier. At first I was a little intimidated about compressing the spring but while my wife was making dinner I compressed the spring by hand according to your instructions and she pushed out the pin, voila, that was done. I installed the new trigger while dinner was in the oven. I did find it just as easy to install the "bear trap" on the new trigger before I put the trigger and safety assembly in. THANK YOU for your extremely detailed instructions they could not have been easier to understand. I am looking forward to this weekend when I can spend some time shooting. Thanks again Scott Bonnell

Subject: up date for GRT-4G trigger

I just bought a new Gamo Silent Cat at the local Wal-Mart for $149.00 plus tax so why should i need a new trigger for it? I did some research and thought, why not? If it is half as good as I read, it will be ok. Let me say that the trigger on the gun was not that bad as far as shooting but if I can inprove it, why not.

After I received my GRT-4G trigger it took me a few days to get the time to change it out. I thought it would take longer to change it out then it really does. I would say it may have taken ten minutes to change to the new one.

Before I took the gun apart I used a Repala fish scale to check the trigger in the gun. The best I could do is 4 to 4.5 lbs. on the pull. I then took the gun apart, put in the new trigger and put the gun back together. I again checked the trigger pull with the same scale and was I surprised. It had dropped from 4 to 4.5 to a 1 to 1.5 lbs. I lost 3 lbs. just by changing the trigger out. I have not tried to or will I try to adjust the two stage trigger. It breaks clean an light pull right out of the package. I love it and would say if you buy it you'll not go wrong. It is well worth the money I paid for it and can't wait to get out and shoot it now.

Thanks for making something that is so good and you don't have to work with or on after you get it. You done a great job making it and anyone reading this should consider one also. Everyone that I know that has an air rifle or gets one I'll be more then happy to send your way.

Thanks again

 Hi Bob,

I installed the GRT-4G trigger on a Gamo Silent Cat. The trigger is AWESOME!!! Not only does the trigger look great but the color and finish are SUPERB!! The trigger went in perfectly and was very, very simple to do and it took about 30 minutes to disassemble the pellet rifle, install the trigger and reassemble the pellet rifle. The instruction videos are FANTASTIC.

The trigger feel and pull compared to the plastic trigger is like night and day. WOW!! What a difference!! You have made an EXCELLENT product!! I can't say anything else about the great product that you made that others haven't said already. This is a great bang for the buck upgrade. Anybody who purchases this trigger or is thinking about purchasing this trigger will not be disappointed. Worth every penny! It makes me want to buy another pellet rifle just so that I can buy another trigger from you! Thanks again for a great product!!

 Bob,

 Received and finally installed my GRT-4G trigger and just wanted to a take a minute to thank you for both your R&D and for such an awesome product!!

It was very easy to install and it actually took longer to reassemble the rifle (Gamo Whisper) than to change out the trigger because I had to go find an extra hand to reinstall the large pin but that’s all.

This particular rifle was never very accurate and its groups looked more like a shotgun pattern than that of a rifle.  The worst part of it has always been that atrocious, cheap plastic trigger!  (What were they thinking??)

After the installation of your amazing new trigger, it feels like a completely different rifle and the groups are down to quite an acceptable size.  It’s still no match rifle but with its superb light pull, it is FAR easier to shoot accurately.  The local crows are doomed!

Thank you again for a PERFECT trigger!  It’s worth every cent and I highly recommend it!!

I just recieved mine this week ,and installed it. Wow!, what a difference.Lighter trigger, better feel. The biggest difference, was that I wasn't thinking about the trigger throughout the whole shot. The stock plastic one is that bad!It is a totally different gun now. Thanks for the dilligent effort on your part, it is greatly appreciated. I would highly recomend this upgrade to anyone with a new Gammo.You won't regret it,as it is the best bang for your buck available.Installation is a snap, the spring compressor is not necessary. All that is needed is an extra finger to push the cross pin out.  Gammo whisper .22

I just finished the GTR-4 trigger install, and all I can say is wow, what a difference. That is the trigger pull I wanted. The stock trigger has you thinking about it the whole time your pulling on it. By the time it goes off , my barrel was all over the place. The first shot I took with the new trigger surprised me when it went off. That’s how it should be. This upgrade more than exceeds my expectations, and for the money, how could you go wrong. The instructions were a little intimidating at first, but once you get into it, it was very simple and straight forward. I did not use a spring compressor, and had no troubles whatsoever. Thank you “Charlie”

 G'Day Charlie,

 I have just installed your GRT-4G Trigger into my new Gamo Whisper CFR, and have to say the difference it has made to the feel of shooting it absolutely amazing. With the stock trigger fitted I sometimes had to stop and take another breath in between the shot as it was a firm pull and taking a steady shot would take forever. Now with the GRT-4G trigger installed it is a much lighter, and a very, very smooth pull. Installation was a breeze, I had the word file and the PDF file on display while doing the install, and it was that easy that I really just followed the pictures from the PDF install file. I did have a spring compressor and did use it but really would not have needed it.

 The GRT-4G trigger is great value and anyone that has an Air Rifle that takes this trigger and still has the stock trigger installed, do yourself a favor and get one of these triggers ASAP, I guarantee you will not be disappointed; the difference is like comparing a cheap car to a Mercedes Benz.

 Thanks again Charlie, I'm going back outside to do some more shooting!!

 Bob,

 I ordered my Gamo Silent Cat air rifle and GRT-4G trigger at the same time.  The trigger arrived, flawless, and in a minimal amount of time.  The rifle just arrived (a week after the trigger)...my hat is off to you for service, shipping and now support! 

 I was a little scared at first to disassemble the new air rifle, but I figured I'd give it a whirl.  Plus, you sent excellent detailed instructions with both written words and illustrations to boot.  I put the rifle, the trigger, some tools and my laptop on my workbench and started working.  To my surprise, it took me less than 30 minutes to remove the receiver, install the trigger and put everything back together again.  An even greater surprise was firing it after the new trigger was installed! 

 Prior to installing your masterpiece of a trigger I zeroed in my new Centerpoint 3-9 X 50mm scope.  It took more than a few pellets due to the "when is it going to fire" factory trigger.  However, after the trigger install, the rifle fires consistently every time and is much more predictable.  You have done a great job with this product and I appreciate the added upgrade.  Keep up the good work and safe shooting.

 Charlie please add this to your testimonials: 

 Received the GRT-4G trigger for my Gamo Socom rifle yesterday and after an easy installation without using a spring compressor,  I was able to shoot 1/2 inch groups at 30 feet. What an amazing improvement in the trigger pull. No more endless drag and hard catchy pull. Thanks to the GRT-4G the birds are now much better fed and don't share with tree rats!

 Well Bob, you did it again. I thought the GRT-4g was going to be difficult to install but it was actually a breeze. I also wanted to let you know that I did it without the spring compressor and my son gave me a hand with it. Very easy to do. And what a difference it has made in my Gamo. Night and day. And your instructions were very in depth and very easy to follow.

I also have your GRT-III triggers in two other guns and the improvement in this gun was just like the others.

 Thanks for such a great product.

Charlie:

I got the trigger yesterday and installed it today. Fantastic. What a great piece of work and what an improvement over the original trigger. No problems installing it and it was much easier than I expected. Anyone that has the Gamo with the plastic trigger should have this. A cheap price to pay for such a great upgrade. It’s like a different gun once installed and a big improvement in the accuracy.

Thanks for all that you do for the airgun nuts like me.

Well Charlie you did it again. All I can say is excellent. What a difference it made. I was surprised at how easy it was to install and even though I didn’t use my spring compressor it was a snap. As you suggested though, I did need a second person to take out and put back in the cross pin. It sure comes out and goes in easy.

Once the trigger was out it was very simple to take apart to put the new trigger in and put it back together again. I’d call it a drop in really. Mine had the little Torx screw but I made up a little screw driver and was able to get the screws out with no trouble. Adjustments were perfect so I didn’t mess with them.

Once again Charlie thanks again for such a wonderful product and making the new Gamos a better gun to shoot.

Jonny

P.S  I also have two of the GRT-III and one of your CBR triggers. All are first grade triggers.

Hi Bob,

Just a quick note to thank you for your efforts in producing the GRT-4G trigger.  Finally had the time to install the trigger today.....about a 30 min job.....went like clockwork.  I shot two 5 shot groups and what a difference the trigger makes. 

Thanks for all you do!

Subject: Your new trigger review

Hey Bob:

 First let me thank you for the opportunity and allowing me to be a tester for the GRT4G trigger. I feel it was an honor. Per our agreement and your requesting an honest opinion good or bad and stating any problems that I might encounter, here are my thoughts regarding your new trigger that you sent me.

 I received the trigger Friday and installed it Saturday morning and as promised, am writing my thoughts about it and the installation. The GRT-4G was installed in my Big Cat that I did a home tune on about 3 weeks ago and had about 500 shots through it. I did have the trigger apart when I tuned it but other than cleaning it lubing it, didn’t mess with it.

 I followed the instructions as you said and had no difficulty at all. By the way, your instructions are very well done. Anybody with maybe just a little ability that reads and follows them and takes their time shouldn’t have any problem.  

 You are correct about putting the safety and trigger in together at the same time. That took me a couple of minutes to sneak it in. Other than that, it was a piece of cake and if I had to do it again, once the trigger is out, could probably do the trigger modification in about five minutes or so.

 I told you that I would be using a spring compressor, which I did but after I put the action back together  I decided to open it up with out the compressor. It does take two people. One person to push the action down to relieve the pressure on the pin and the other person (my son) to push the pin out and slide back in. The pin does slide out real easy, not like the older guns like my Whisper so it was surprisingly easy to do. I’m not a big person or heavy person but a big strong person could probably do it by himself with no trouble.

 It has completely changed my Big Cat. The trigger is much lighter and smoother with little creep and far more predictable. It does feel a bit different than the GRT-III in my Whisper, and I don’t mean that in a bad way. But what a difference and improvement it makes. It will be worth every penny that you decide to charge.

 After I got it installed I did some target shooting at 30 and 40 yards with it Saturday and also Sunday. Very good shooting conditions here in Florida both days. There is vast improvement and shoots just about as good as my Whisper. It shrunk my 2 and 2 ½ inch groups to the size of a quarter and less and that’s good for me. I don’t call myself a real good shot.

 End results. Bob you’ve done it again. You have come up with another winner and you are going to have a lot of very happy customers all over again.

 Your GRT-4 trigger will be one of the best investments your customers will be able to make in their Gamo just as was their purchases of the GRT-3 triggers. They can expect the same based on what I have seen and I own both.

I know that you provided your trigger free of charge asking nothing more than my honest review and comments but I would be more than willing to pay you for this trigger if you would let me because it is well worth it.

 Thanks again and good luck… but I don’t think you will need it.
