Hello All,



I just read Bob's (CharlieDaTuna's) Blog, and anyone that would like to read Bob's account of this saga, should stop in there and read Bob's account of what has, and is happening concerning the GREAT GRT-III Trigger !



This Blog was started by Bob (CDT) because he has been unable to respond to Steve in NC lies and attacks on his GREAT GRT-III Trigger. Steve in NC seams to be able to intimidate other forums in some way, so that anyone that disagrees with him are blocked, or their post are DELETED.



So if you are interested in "The Rest of the Story", go to: http://charliedatuna.blogspot.com/



Thanks,



Bill

I'm new to this controversy.  However, I had already read Bob's blog. Being an engineer I understand the difficulties between conception, design, and manufacturing.  All I can say, is Bob's hard work and effort to make his GRT-III trigger is to be commended.  It's a great product - well made with close tolerances yet versatile enough to fit a wide variety of makes and models.

I have three GRT-III's: One in a Daisy 130A, one in a Gamo Hunter 220, and now one in my new Crosman Quest 800. They all dropped right in and worked well without any adjustments.  If fact, the only one I've adjusted, at all, was the one in my Quest.  It worked fine, but required a little "tweaking" to suit my personal tastes. Given the manufacturing tolerances (especially in the Chinese made Quest) I think it's a testament to Bob that it works so well in so many different air rifles.

GREAT PRODUCT and GREAT PRODUCT SUPPORT!  Way to go, Bob.

I think I understand the "controversy" and what is at the root of it all.  What I don't understand is why independent forums, other than Steve's forum, permit him or anyone a free hand to bash CDT, on the one hand, and absolute censorship of anything CDT might post, on the other hand.  That being the case, I just avoid those forums.

I tried to post on Green tonight, and could not !



I have been a member there for two years, and I'm sure they know my feelings on this topic, as we known there, as we all visit other forums from time to time.



I believe Steve in NC badgers and bullies anyone that doesn't share his philosophy or stories.

Someone posted on the Crosman forum last night about their good experience with Bob's trigger. A few were concerned about what whats-his-name will do to retaliate. Still no word from whats-his-name.

Now Steve is claiming an improvement - plastic coating on his adjustment screw to hold it in place.  I asked why a simple locking nut arrangement wouldn't do just as well?  "No. Locknuts are a poor solution in high-precision adjustment applications because...
...tightening the nut almost always perturbs the adjustment by a few 0.001"s. Ask a Daystate Huntsman owner about trigger adjustments, if you don't believe me. The Huntsman trigger uses coaxial lockscrews - which have the same problem as locknuts for the same reason."

Call for the Princess and the Pea!!!  I think my trigger adjustment just went out by .002"!  Oooo, I'm so PERTURBED!!!!

Well, unless you are one of the blessed who can tell 1 lb 3 oz from 1 lb 4 oz, I can't see the benefit of micro-tuning pull weights.  Used to have a SW radio with a fine tuning feature.  Once you dialed in a station, you turned the fine tune knob to get it really clear.  Of course, it never actually got any clearer.  Was just a feel-good feature.

Seriously, he's starting to sound like this guy: :D

Obviously backwards engineered from the GRTIII

Fewer machine operations for a cheaper product, likely done with a substandard material . . .



We'll find out when somebody loses a finger to a 'slamfire' because the trigger failed. I certainly don't trust SteveNC, and have already been 'ripped off' by his 'sight of hand' in the past.



CdT always stands behind his products and services, while SteveNC palms off responsibility or liability ANYWHERE else!



WHY!?! Anyone care to guess?

I didn't even know that I was blocked out until just a couple of days ago. I haven't  posted much on the Green Forum because of my respect for the guys over there. Every time I would post over there or talk to the guys, Steve would jump in and start trouble. I talked to Duane and a couple of others way back and explained to them that because of my respect for them and their members that I wouldn't post there much because of the problems that Steve would cause. It didn't matter though because it seems that he would still cause problems and still does to this day.

 I still have a lot of respect for them but why the admin's there allowed him back in after banning him a couple of times and still put up with his antics is beyond me. And after seeing what has happened the last few days and all of the blocked people from our forum, it really makes you wonder.
