Installed Trigger Plate and Trigger:

Inlet the trigger plate into the stock. Then I drilled thru the plate and the barrel tang using my jig for a 8 x 32 tang bolt. The rear end of the plate was secured with a #4 wood screw. 2010-05-05 001.JPG (241479 bytes)2010-05-05 002.JPG (241590 bytes)

 

 

 

 

 

 

To hold the trigger in place, I drilled a 3/32" hole thru the stock in the lock area where the pivot on the trigger is located. Marked the trigger and then drilled the trigger. 2010-05-05 004.JPG (208649 bytes) Then I use a nail for my pin thru the stock.2010-05-05 003.JPG (242161 bytes)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cut the pin down; beveled the ends with a flat spot on the end of the pin to make it easier for pushing it out later. 2010-05-05 006.JPG (228937 bytes)

Thru a series of trials, I filed down the top flat of the trigger which engaged the sear on the lock, so it would hold fast at Safety position, but release nicely at full cock.
