Yeah, I replaced mine with a standard Shilen and it's set to two pounds. Another guy that had one put a Jewel trigger in his. Needed to be fitted, he had to grind part of the receiver to get it to fit. Ended up with a 1/8" divot in the bottom side of the receiver.

It couldn't be seen once the stock was put back in place. This one was one of their 2 OUNCE triggers, no fingering the trigger until you were absolutely ready to shoot! Breathing heavy on the trigger would almost set it off.

Now here is a warning about the AR-50's firing pin safety. IT'S HEAVY!!! And the way the factory trigger was set up it allows you to snap the safety down without issue. I HIGHLY recommend an aftermarket trigger with an internal safety if you plan on regularly using that safety. It's so heavy that it can depress the sear and cause an aftermarket trigger to fire!

I personally found this out the hard way when someone asked if they could shoot mine. I said go ahead, ammo is over there. Next thing I know is he's tapping me on the shoulder and telling me that my rifle fired for no reason. After having to take my rifle apart to fix it, I figured out what had happened after what he explained happened when using the firing pin safety.

Owners beware, either don't use the safety, warn others about the issue or buy a trigger with an internal safety! I don't let anyone shoot it unless I explain it to them and the safety is off limits. Don't load it until you are ready to shoot, keep fingers off trigger until the same.

The firing pin safety is on the rear of the bolt, you have to kinda pull it out and push it over. If you don't have a good hold of it when taking it off, it will snap between your fingers and slam forward.

You don't need to use it or have it on unless you're paranoid about it. It's a single shot rifle and doesn't need to be loaded until you're ready to shoot. Once loaded keep your finger off the trigger like any other firearm until ready to shoot.

The older models like mine had double nuts on all the screws that adjusted the trigger and I think it was set at 10+ pounds. Pain in the ass, it was easier to just replace it. The difference between the two was night and day!

2 ounces is extremely awesome but you have to pay attention all of the time.

The AR-50 came up on another site, new owner had some ???'s about them. The trigger came up and replacement options for it.

He posted Huber Concepts as another company that makes drop in replacement triggers for Rem 700's. He spoke with them about using theirs on the AR-50 and they said that it would work 100%.

So you might want to look them up and see if that will satisfy your needs. If you don't feel comfortable doing the swap, take it to a good gunsmith. Have him install and adjust it to whatever setting you want it at.

If you go with the HC trigger, post your results for the rest of us. I'm thinking about upgrading again and I like that they build theirs to the customers demands.

No playing with adjusting, they set it to where you want and all you have to do is install it. Different types of safeties... seems like a good set up.
