    Update:
    I Flitzed the Trigger and Sear and all area's concerned.
    Cut 1/2 a Coil from the Trigger return spring and lubed everything with Tetra Gun grease,
    and Presto.
    It now has a first stage of #2 and second stage of #3.5
    Still has alot of Creep though, but I can live with that, seeing how it shoots Sub MOA anyways

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Take the trigger apart and clean it well with acetone/kerosene/lacquer thinner, stone all wear surfaces with fine stone keeping edges straight.
    Cut one coil off of return spring and grind end flat/square.
    Clean and install spring in trigger with light grease (I use disc brake wheel bearing grease with Moly).
    Put Moly (engine assy lube at your local car parts store) on ALL wear surfaces and try trigger.

    Im in Nor Cal redwood city if you need help.
