Guys,

I have ordered one and should be getting soon. Got my sr9c about a month ago and love it. I can not tell if there is over travell in my trigger. I do wish it was lighter but when it breaks, it breaks clean and i cant tell if there is over travell.
My question is do other sr9c owners feel the over travell ? and rocket is a good choice? Also whats your experience with rocket?

Thanks
 
I like a light trigger pull, but since I am carrying my SR9c, I wouldn't want it to be any lighter than it is. Supposed to be around 6 lbs.

I can say that my trigger has improved a good bit in the nearly 500 rounds I have put through it. I would say, if you are happy with the smoothness and break of the stock trigger, unless it is going to be a range weapon, leave it stock. Just my opinion.

Haven't really noticed any over travel on mine. Haven't really looked for it.
 
This will be range and competition gun so i do want the best trigger possible. Also i keep grouping low (zeroed at 21ft) even though i do get some in bulls eye. Most likely i am squeezing the grip or somethng due that extra pull on the trigger. I do agree for carrying purpose the gun is super accurate and trigger good enough. But i do feel resistence when i have decided to break the shot, i do have 1200 rounds through it. So my goal is to get the best possible trigger for competition and accuracy.
 
Hi, I have the Ghost Rocket in both my SR9 and SR9C. To me, it helped the trigger pull considerably, made it a bit lighter and corrected all overtravel.

To determine if your gun has overtravel, look at the back of your trigger and you will see a stepped section. When the "glock-type" middle section is pressed back, that stepped section then is presented and hits the back of the frame when the trigger is fully pressed and the gun is fired. That stepped section is a form of overtravel preventor but it is not perfect since it is generic and not specific to the internals of every gun. Therefore, your gun may have minimal, some or alot of overtravel.

[b]With an empty gun and an empty mag[/b], you can put a folded piece of paper or a piece of rubber behind the trigger with a thickness such that as the trigger is pulled and the striker is released the paper or rubber will prevent the trigger from going any futher. Hold the trigger in that position and pull the paper or rubber out and the space between the back of the stepped section of the trigger and the frame is the "overtravel."

Overtravel may affect your accuracy unless you hold the gun very firmly because it allows the gun to move slighly as the trigger hits the back of the frame.

The Ghost Rocket will correct that overtravel. To me, it reduced the trigger press weight to around 4.5 lbs, made it very crisp, and eliminated all overtravel. It was well worth the $29.

Good luck.

PS - I have around 5,000 rounds through the SR9 and about 4,000 through the SR9C. Never a hiccup and I have shot just about every type of ammo through them.

I too have the rocket on my SR9c. Although I do sometimes wonder if the overtravel matters since depending on the cartridge, the bullet may have already left the barrel by the time the trigger hits the frame. Still worth it regardless IMO.
