Snowpeak Lancer / Snowpeak SP500 .22

Noticed Lancer started selling SP500 .22 break barrel pistols on Amazon for $47 shipped, goal is to have dartboard pistols.

Ordered two. Both barrels tilt to the right but was able to move rear sight mount to compensate and keep sight centered and it might be getting better with breakin. Finish is great, small gap in top rear trim around spring endcap, grip trim fit is perfect.

Theres no m3x10mm grubscrew trigger hole for pretravel adjustment, they removed it from this variant. If someone can help on angle and position the hole is itd be appreciated.

The sear engagement screw seems to be maxed out already at the point just before slamfire on hard barrel closing. There was no point in filing down the screw so it could fit past the hardstop, why is this different?
 
i have no idea why they change but without the trigger work this are junk

2.5mm drill and i would start with a 2mm and i would also tap it vs just using the screw

10mm grub is too long, maybe 5mm. Difference is subtle to me but big to Geezer, probably need to just remove trigger spring before it's useful to add grub screw although it removes pretravel. Geezer drilled hole with finger drill using 2mm drill and hole in trigger guard as a guide, IMO it was too small a drill bit since it took 30 minutes to get it tapped.

Consider adding loctite to barrel pivot screw.
