Re: Savage MARK II trigger upgrade
I am very pleased with the results.
I don't know what a real shooter would think about it, but my guess is they would notice some improvement. It has less slopppp, and it is lighter. If you read in some of the threads, they talk about the spring weight on the actual safety trigger, if it gets too light, it won't function properly. That is true. I can testify to that. I need to dial mine up some. It will hang up if you dial down the preasure too far on that safety trigger feature, and then you have to work the bolt(half way) to reset it so you can fire.
And I modified my main trigger spring. You have to be real carreful with cutting and re-bending it so it works the same, except its shorter.
I bought my Mark II brand new. I ran maybe 100, 200 rounds to it and I started to modify it. I don't regret it.
Right now I am working on a design to upgrade the plastic stock, or totally fabricating one using aluminum and carbon fiber.
If you are not comfortable doing what I did, get help from someone. If you mess it up your trigger, you can always buy a new one, or upgrade with a 200 dollar after market unit.
If you think we can meet some where to shoot, you are more than welcome to try it out. I'll warn you though, every time I have tried to meet up with a Hide member, something always gets in the way. Mostly "Honey-Do" list and kids ball games, which, ya gotta support yer kids, no doubt.....
Hollar at me......
