    Huber concept anti_friction ball triggers

    Well as the title says this, is the answer to my only criticism of the No4 Enfield. I have always found that the trigger left a little to be desired.....(bearing in mind that I'm not using this as a war tool). I bought another AIAM10B2 Match rifle this week for a friend and it came installed with the Huber's trigger...oh what a joy, my AIA MATCH will soon be getting one too!! (It is by the way made for a No4MK1) A silky smooth pull and single stage. I've gotten used to the regular mil trigger having shot a lot out of #'4s but this is quite a substantial improvement and well worth the money. Not sure what weight pull it reduces but it's so smooth!!!!!! Going to order a few and foresure going to install one on the original T as long as no minor wood removal is required for fitting....everything else is "drop in". Hope this helps of those in need. Regards.

    The Huber trigger gives a smoother trigger pull, but not necessarily a lighter one.

    You still need to stone the front face of the cocking piece in the time-honoured fashion to lighten the pull significantly.

    (I have one on my AIA M10 too)

    Wouldn't that be taking away its "original status" ?

    I think that it'd be taking another thing away too. Your money Bros! If you stone the trigger bents, sear faces and cocking piece faces IN THE DIRECTION OF THE FRICTION and polish them afterwards you will achieve your aim. If your rifle - or anyone elses - has a graunchy trigger mech/pull-off, then as sure as eggs is eggs, that can and will (eventually) occur with a 'better' mechanism too.

    If it's just the pull off weights you want to adjust, that's simplicity itself too.

    Added later....... I should have said '....stoned/polished in the direction of movement of the opposing component. For example, the trigger bent on the sear, an up and down polish as opposed to an across ways polish.

    No sniper that I knew would ever accept a graunchy or rough trigger mech/pull-off. They were taught early in the course alll about the correct maintenance and functioning of the weapons

    Huber trigger for LE No4

    I have a Huber trigger for my 03A3 springfiled and like it.

    I tried the Huber trigger for the Lee Enfield No.4. I did not like it. It took a while to get adjusted and even then, I didn't think it offered any advantage over the standard military trigger. I don't think there is anything wrong with the military pull. Mine is crisp - just heavy. I took the Huber out and put the original trigger back in. I changed the angle of the sear to lighten the pull to 3.5 lbs and it works great. I can't think of a military trigger that is easier to adjust.

    It is quite easy tolighten the pull off as WNO has said. You can get down to 3lbs (min. first pressure) and 5lbs (min.2nd pressure) by carefully stoning the sear face of the cocking piece rearwards a tad just as he says

    Single stage, I did a memory dump as soon as I read that. ;-)
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
