Curious but did you have any issues getting the tail safety to fit within the grip OK? Mine isn't long enough and the catches don't reach the hammer spring housing, so the tail safety just flips outwards freely.

Well, the P's grip safety doesn't actually work but it's not quite sloppy flips out though.

I'm actually having a little trouble with this kit come to think of it, if anyone can help.

Try as I might, switching out leaf springs, hammer springs, etc. I always seem to have one of three problems.

1. The hammer only drops to half cock (AM leaf spring)

2. The trigger works without the grip safety depressed.

 

Regardless of parts, the trigger feels a lot stiffer than I'm used to, rather than a smooth travel to a bite and break, theres resistance at first, like it snags on something.

 

It's been so long since I did any internal tinkering in these ( I'm only just getting back into it after a LONG hiatus). I'm not sure if the trigger bar is stock, but all the hammer/sear parts are stock afaik.

I hate facebook so I thought I'd drop in.

Where are you buying from nowadays? I've been reminiscing about thr days of buying WA 1911's for 800HKD with no import fees.

Elite's gone. hicapahub is a little sparse, and I've no idea where's best to order from abroad.

I have completed my build so far and I have the same ISSUE you mentionned in your previous post :

The Grip Tail safety is too short or the Hammer Spring Housing is not long enough, as it lacks 1-3mm to catch the 2 notchs of the Grip tail safety :

It may happens when cooking manually the hammer, that the grip tail safety flips outwards freely.

Otherwise, when racking the slide manually, I do not have that issue.

Meantime with some kind of floating grip tail safety, some issues can occur when firing the airsoft gun....

I may replace the stock NOVA Staccato grip by an Armsaholic STI stippled one to avoid that problem due to some misconception from the manufacturer.

Other than that, I am more than satisfied with this build, the NOVA Staccato XC is a great quality kit.
