Springfield M1922 M1.1 Questions
I just got a nice 1922M1.1 that has a Timney trigger installed. I am thinking about restoring it to the original trigger type. I think it is a regular Springfield type 2-stage trigger used on the 03, 03A3, and 1917. I have one of these in stock so it would be an easy swap out.
Am I right???
The only problem I have found with the rifle is a loose Lyman front sight (fixed with a twist of a screwdriver), loose screws on the Lyman rear sight with the rear sight windage knob screw slot broken. Anyone able to tell me the thread size? I believe it is a 2-64 as a 2-56 just starts but won't advance. A 1-72 won't screw in either and seems too loose. I measured the diameter of the screw (0.0765) which seems to be about right for a 2.
I also have a very nice apparently original 1922M2.
My intent is to use the first one as a shooter for a while and keep the other as a safe queen for now. Both are really clean and well cared-for.
I got both from a nephew who is in divorce financial trouble so helped him out.
