Problem with No. 4 Mk1* Trigger

[limazulu]

Because the collar hasn't yet been shortened to suit the wood, hence it needs a trim...

If the collar is longer then the number of turns would be fewer. You can't turn more then the distance to the wood. In my case it was 3/4 of a turn too tall and reducing that amount did absolutely nothing.

Here's the straight answer to the quesdtioin in straight talking.....................................

IN answer to your last question............ You CAN have a double stage trigger when the bolt is open and single whan it's closed. But the double stage trigger is purely and hopelessly useless when the bolt is open because you don't FIRE the rifle when the bolt is open. So forget the red herring that you're looking at. You MUST concentrate on the CLOSED bolt scenario and you are only using the LOWER rib of the trigger against the sear. This rib is too proud and as such, the sear is beign pressed down and around this rib. Before the sear gets to the top rib, it's dropped off the face of the cocking piece. You sort out the lower rib as per the detailed instructions and you WILL correct your dodgy pull off

Thank you Peter. That answers my question.
