Thread: Savage triggers setting off when bumping the blade

If he’s managing to pressure the main trigger blade without taking up the slack in the accutrigger blade, that honestly takes quite a bit of doing and indicates a very uneven trigger pull.

It’s built that way so you (or a twig, or your gear) can’t just bump the edge of the trigger blade to set it off, you need to take the pressure up square from the front, activating the accutrigger blade first. Basically a second safety.

Im I able to apply a little more tension thru adjustment for the main trigger blade? or a little more travel? a fraction of a mm with the pressure of a pixy fart sets it off, or is it non adjustable?

I imagine people usually lighten triggers when they buy savages but this is beyond light
