How many guys and girls out there have one of these fitted? was thinking I might just slap one into my Model 7.
I always liked a trigger that only needed a decent breath of air to set things alight:D..yeah I'm gonna do it.
It will just be like old times in a way..yeah right lol.
Got 3 of them on maser 98s. A good trigger. You can do a lot with a std R.E.M. Trigger if it is the right model. Shi Len make a good Remington style trigger

I have them on a Parker Hale an Omark 44 and a couple of Mauer 98's also a Winchester M70 would be happy to fit them on any rifle, They don't go breath of air light but pretty good and reliable at 2 pounds
an older Remington is just as good if polished and tweaked by some who knows what they are doing
Got one in my m96 really like it
Have one in my weatherby vanguard adjusted to 2lbs great trigger, also have one in my rem m700 that never felt as good as the Wby until I adjusted the creep a small amount also set to just under 2lbs. And one in an AR 3lbs.
Have one on my rem 700 set to 1.5lbs love it.
I put one in my 700, it wouldn't go as lite as I would of wanted so it's probably just above 2 pound pull. I couldn't tell the difference between that and my old trigger that was worked on by Alan Carr. I'd go for the elite next time.
I have a three-lever model on my 6x47 ~F-Class gun and I guess it would break at about 6oz. You wouldn't actually want that light on most hunting rifles
I have a few, mainly the Calvin Elite model, well worth the extra $$$
Added one to my model seven. Needed a bit of fiddling to get bolt release to function. Not as much room as on a 700 . Works great
Shit news to say the least.....hit the buy now thingy etc..then realised I'd hit the wrong one....700 trigger instead of the Model 7 one.
Sent the chap a email straight away..am still waiting.Not a lot of snooze last night...shit. Maybe I need stronger glasses.....and a kick up the arse eh.
Well happy ending and back to being half normal again lol.Quote:

Tried fitting one to my model 7, swapped it out adjusted the pull .... sweet. But when I dropped it back into the stock (after market CF) it binds up and does not fit/work. Looks like it needs quite a bit of material taken out of the stock and/or the trigger guard. In the too hard basket for now, put the old Rem trigger back in. Be interested to hear how you get on. Have fitted several Timney's to REM700's in past - no problems. Love the triggers, especially the CE's
It cant be too hard, I think you need to take the side off of the old one ( it may be on giggle) or from the instructions with it. To fit onto the timney Mine needed to have the bolt stop plate bent some more to stop it doing an auto release. Stacey at Hamils in Tga did mine for me.
I have two Ar15 versions.
Good triggers.
Well the Timney went in like a dream ,less than twenty minutes and the job was done. Chainsaw the stock on mine is wooden and I guess I am lucky that the trigger never touched anywhere eh.And hell does it feel nice when you set it off.Quote:

Would prefer to keep my rifles consistent. I can feel the trigger about to go in both my Rugers and in my AR15. There is a small amount of pre-travel in both.
Pre-travel Gerbs,the old term is creep lol but that don't mean shit,knows what yi mean.
Not sure mate how to adjust the Timney to give it some creep.
I believe these triggers are designed to snap with a reasonable light pull,,woops,,sqeeze.
Hop on UTUBE Gerbs,see what you come up with eh.Everyone is different when it comes to how
this and that suits them and there are some clued up gun nuts on this sight also,watch this space eh.
Introducing creep seems to me to be undesirable. Mostly we spend money to get rid of or reduce trigger creep. Are we talking here about a 2 stage trigger versus a single stage trigger?
I think he means 2 stage
Sounds creepy to me:P
Timney triggers have amazing trigger pull and zero creep but one of the ways they get that is by using a lighter than normal hammer spring. Be aware of that.
Be aware in what way Massive?Quote:

Come in Massive.

Yes my experience relates to an AR. Be aware that lighter than spec hammer spring may result in light hammer strikes and misfires.Quote:
