I also have a '60 bought two years ago. Trigger was a POS until I fired 500rds or so. Could be complicated to alter, don't know if it got lighter with use or perhaps I got used to it.
Good/dependable rifle for the money though- its murder on bushytails and running bunnies!

tried this rifle yesterday.....very nice shooter, but the trigger is a POS , sorry V1....it seems like this rifle has the second level safety you pool the trigger and nothing happens you check the safety, it`s off.....wow, this trigger is hard about 7-8lb ))))

Thanks, at 400 rnds it does lighten up and I helped it out a lil' with some dry lube spray and polishing the working surface. Now it's muuuuch better, thought not perfect yet
