I would like to know what trigger to buy and where for a drop in application for a model 111.
I have a couple of the SAV-2 triggers, they seem to do the job pretty well. You can find them in a number of different places.I would like to know what trigger to buy and where for a drop in application for a model 111.
Tony C,
You wouldn't want to, the accutrigger is nothing more than the original trigger with a dangerous lack of sear engagement for a factory trigger and a safety catch to stop the disaster. The trigger return/tension spring is in a different location to make it better. If you look at an accutrigger, you will find the trigger's sear mating surface has an angled relief cut that reduces the amount of engagement. Older original triggers had a screw to adjust this.
The thing with the accutrigger is Savage was the first to come out with a trigger that can be set very low. Rem now makes the XMarkPro (or something to that effect), Marlin, bought out by Remington, makes a clone of the Savage and it also has that trigger.
The accutrigger is great for the average joe but not for most guys here. The Rifle Basix Sav2 trigger is good, but IMO and others, the safety should NOT be used if the trigger is set low. It WILL fire when the safety is moved off under the right circumstances.
Sharp shooter supply, a member here, makes a great trigger for the savage. I need to get a couple more of them actually, thanks for the reminder.
