The strain screw is NOT an adjustment screw ,,,,though many improperly use it for that.
It needs to be bottomed out and snug. Leaving it loose can lead to backing out and light hammer strikes.
Shorten the screw or weaken the spring if you must but these are both shortcuts that can end in intermittency . Too short or a weak spring in the rebound slide will cause the trigger reset to be sluggish or incomplete. Internal polish is the proper way to get results.
