Does anyone know what allen wrench size I need to remove a trigger shoe from a Blackhawk? My smallest size is still too big. Thanks
Allen size for trigger shoe

Try a .050, I just checked 3 different size shoes and they were all .050

Thanks Ron, I will have to first buy one. Appreciate your checking. Mike
Buying a folding set with small sizes will be easier than finding a single allen wrench of that size. And it's harder to misplace the folding set than a single tiny little allen wrench.

Sorry you couldn't make it to our Idaho Ruger show. We had a great time and are looking forward to an even greater turnout next year (with you being part of it)
.I agree, I will buy a set of the small sizes (can never have enough tools). Mike
remember, keep a few around, gotta keep the tip ( end) "fresh" so as to NOT round out the hole, or "FUBAR"...........a drop of 'kroil or Rustbuster or some such to make the removal easier......... have seen many over the years that the hole was boogered and had to drill them out.........the more you take them on and off the worse you make of the sides of the trigger.......

Thanks All,
I bought the allen wrench and it came right off, without any trouble. The trigger looked good too, no marks from the trigger shoe. Mike
