Lee Enfield L39 7.62 Help with trigger please.
Hi, Just acquired a Lee Enfield L39 7.62 target rifle with hammered barrel. Very accurate on the range but the two stage trigger is very creaky and then quite slack after firing. I was wondering if I can purchase a specialist trigger for this rifle and if so, can anyone give advice on which one and where I can get it. I would prefer if the old trigger can be put back when necessary but if not I would go with the new one. Going to the States in a week so a dealer over there would be ok. Thanks for any help you can give. John

You don't need a new trigger......... Look at it this way. If what you've got was suitable for snipers who REALLY did need a good trigger, then it should be good enough for you. What you need to do is to set the whole thing up correctly. You wouldn't buy a new VW engine just because the ECU was playing up. You'd just fix up what you have.
There is a well written article on the forum somewhere about how to do it. Read, read, then read again and only THEN set about it
Just my humble 2c's worth

The Huber trigger is a drop in replacement for the standard No 4 trigger. It CAN be set up to give you a nice smoother trigger, even a single stage one. It WON'T give you a lighter trigger pull without modifying other parts of the action.
I have installed one of these, would have been better off saving my money and following the process outlined in the article mentioned above.

The Can-West trigger is another one, but it apparently requires a fair bit of modification to the rifle. Maybe Google it and see what is involved.
The bog-standard trigger, suitably tweaked, is still probably the best value.
