Timney install

[nfngun]

So i droped a Timney in a rem 700, it went in easy but the bolt release is a little rought. It looks like the spring is forceing the bolt release to one side and its hanging a little. Not to sure how to illeviate some of the twist thats going on. If i push it center with my finger its much smoother, should i ease the spring a little or let it work itself in?

Here is a link to a Timney install on UTube from Brownells. I don't know if it will help, but might. Good Luck...

Thanks for the link i may have to keep tweaking the end of the bolt release.

Mine did the same thing. I just bent the end of it a little changing the angle and eventually it worked fine.

Once all the other accessories come in I'll spend more time getting it smoother.

Make sure there's a tiny bit of play between the end of the bolt release tab & the bolt stop indent.

I had to lossen the allen screw on the side a half turn try that.

That would be the logical step, but make sure there's not too much rattle between the bolt release triangular piece & the trigger housing.
Better to buff the f@#k out of both surfaces & not have too much play.

Re: Timney install

I was going to back the screw off but didn't mess with it wasnt sure what else if anything it did. Like hold the trigger together in some fashion.

I have time to play with it looks like another week before everything else is getting here before i can bring her out for the first time.

nfngun - it doesn't do anything except hold the bolt release plate.

All you have to do is back it out enough so it slides freely against the trigger housing.

Taking it off & buffing the contact surfaces is a plus.

Re: Timney install

thanks will give me something too do one night. It would seem the tooling in the cut out for the release may be adding to it it as well.
