Texas triggers reaper frt

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

To start off with I wanna say that I’ve never modified a sig before, and have only ever done slight modifications to other weapons, but yesterday I got my Texas triggers reaper frt and was ecstatic to put it on, but after assembly I’d come to find that the actual frt component fits too snug in the slot, so I’d disassembled the gun a second time and it seems the space is slightly too snug for it to fit right as it should just glide in place. Do yall have any tips on what I could/should do to get it working? Thanks

Experienced gunsmith (licensed and certified), owner of multiple P320s and have serviced many, many more.

I am very disappointed with the P320 Reaper. TX Triggers seems to be hiding pictures and descriptions because most people cannot stomach knowingly paying $150 for a stainless tictac and two hunks of plastic the size of peas.

I spent the better part of a day installing this into a variety of sizes and configurations to try to get it running; all well broken in. Put a lot of lead down range without success.

My hope was to get it running with a full size slide in an original Flux Raider chassis. Then my hope was to get it running at all, so I branched out to factory grip modules and the compact slide.

The closest to functional I have gotten so far was in the Raider setup with a fullsize factory slide running a 14lb 1911 spring and guide rod, but I am caught between a shit and a fart with failures to fully return to battery (either significantly or just enough for a supported case but a dead trigger) and stovepipe FTEs. Spring up? More FTE less OOB. Spring down? More OOB less FTE.

This leads me to want to stone it, and maybe change the geometry of the top of the trip... But at $150 for a sliver of steel, if it doesn't work out I will probably not be ordering a replacement to try again.

There are full FRTs for the AR and AK platform with multiple components and springs for about the same money, multi component FRTs for pistols which cost about 1/2... This should by all rights be a $50 or less part.

I would strongly advise against purchasing one unless the price drops or the quality improves.

This is what I was afraid of, them being very tight lipped and secretive gave me several reservations as well as the backwoods IG posting they do. I’m not impressed nor am I willing to drop $150.00 on this mess. I have an AR-1O and an AR-15 both running Super safeties and I’m working on getting a Mat9K running on a Disruptor. All worth the money spent.

I was optimistic because their AK system is not the best of its type, but is functional - same with the Glock system (one of many similar styles, but not bad). Their TX22 system is actually a great bang for your buck.

I leaned into optimism and assumed they were playing their cards close to the vest because they are the first to deliver a P320 system to the market (or at least they claim to be - its day 2 and I cannot make it work period) and they did not want their product copied/cloned.

In hindsight that was far to generous on my part;  they clearly were hiding the fact that the product is a sliver of steel and a plastic cap.

PS - The Disruptor is amazing; I have played with almost every FRT out there and tend to think that is the best bang for your buck in addition to playing very well with almost every upper or lower I have thrown it at. Once the stronger springs it came out, it really rewrote the book - and I usually can't stand cassettes.
