I've never done any upgrades to the guns I own. They were either left stock or someone else did the work.
I recently picked up a TX22 and wanted to add a Tandemkross fiber optic front sight and trigger spring.
The sight swap was easy and not at all intimidating. Then came the trigger spring change.
Thanks to the videosTandemkross makes, I felt pretty comfortable going in. Getting the gun back together was a little tricky. I was concentrating on not losing the slide lock spring and then I hear a ping and something small bouncing around my office. The take down spring had gone bouncing away, causing a 20 min delay while I tore my office apart to find it.
I found the spring and got the gun back together with no more mishaps.
This is probably pretty simple stuff for most of you, but as an newbie to doing this kind of work, I was pretty proud of myself.
I have some parts for my 10/22 so that's next.
