Simple question, but the answer may not be. I was comparing the two-stage trigger group on my Bushy Varminter to a standard trigger group on another rifle, and the only difference I could physically notice were the set screws in the safety selector. I haven't swapped parts yet to see if the functions are the same, but may do this just to confirm my thoughts. What I am wondering... is it possible to drill and tap the standard safety selector to accomodate two set screws, and turn the standard trigger group into a "frank white" style two-stage trigger? I realize that some work or replacement of the stock springs may be necessary. Is this feasible? Will it provide the results I'm looking for? Thanks for the help, figured better to ask around first before tearing up a perfectly good trigger group. Manford |
| I did the 15-minute trigger job on my rifle. It took it from +-9 pounds to about 4. It's still a single action but it's much nicer now. Some people say that there isn't enough hammer speed to set off hard military primers but mine functions fine. I did follow the instructions and tighten the coil on the hammer spring so that may have helped. Do this first and see if you like it. That way, if something gets hosed you're only out $1 per spring instead of $30 or so for a new FCG. I like it almost as much as my RRA 2-stage in my match gun. MJD |
Thanks for the reviews of the 15-minute trigger job, i'm also looking at that procedure. Here's a link: www.geocities.com/molonlaberkba/triggerjob.html (only one I could find, my apologies if I'm stepping on toes there) Any info on the set-screws? My apologies if my jargon is not spot-on, by no means am I an expert and this might be adding to the confusion regarding my original question. This appears to be exactly the same design as what is installed in the Bushy Varminter: www.compasslake.com/trigger.htm Manford |
