Since we’ve come back to the Space, the trigger assembly on the MIG doesn’t latch like it should. If I grab the trigger assembly to pull when I’m taking off the copper “shield”, it pulls the trigger assembly out a bit. @rlisbona said that the guard at the top should lock in place, and it doesn’t.
There is a quarter turn bushing at the end of the handle that I think acts like a collet to clamp the handle to the gun tip. It isn’t very tight. It’s tight enough for welding but if you hold the black handle while removing the tip the handle breaks away and the trigger pops loose. Also the crimp connections on the trigger leads are iffy, there is exposed wire on one of the leads. I’ll probably have some free time Wednesday to take a closer look.
