Hey Guys

Got a question about Mosin trigger jobs. anyone do one on theirs? I have watched a few of the videos on youtube etc. Now the trigger on mine has no slop in it, cocked or not, the screw holding it in is tight and the trigger doesn't move back and forth, cocked or not... I just want to lighten the trigger pull a little to help increase my accuracy. I have seen the washer round the screw trick, i have seen a little filing or grindstone on the sear and on the cocking piece. Is there anything else any experts out there know that they wouldn't mind sharing ?
Also, had the idea of maybe taking the dremel to the trigger and thinning it out a little bit or putting more of a crescent into the shape of the trigger ? any thoughts ?
My mosin is in an Archangel stock with mismatched numbers, i bought it to shoot and enjoy. I thought about the timney trigger insert as well, but i don't know where i can get one in Ontario.

Thanks for anything you guys can tell me. pm if it's secret knowledge :p hehahaha cheers guys
 
Any wood need to removed from the stock to fit? Canadian dealer? Would like to leave my 91/30 sniper original as possible.From what I have been able to find out there were 3 types of Finn triggers ,39 two stage ,27 intrical trigger to trigger spring and a two piece style.
 
keep an eye on my thread. Im about to try a new sear from a guy down in the states soon as it arrives. I shimmed my trigger with a washer and reduced the length by a lot, but it was still heavy.

Im told you can polish the sear in two spots and the cocking knob where the sear mates. you can also grind the sear (id only do that if i had a spare to play with). I think my spring was just too strong to make much of a difference when i shimmed it. Plus the extra slop without the return spring was annoying. I think i paid 80 bucks for the new sear.

I've had luck simply bending the sear down to stretch the spring a little. It lightened things up quite a bit after I polished the bolt and sear as best I could. I just used a large flat screw driver to jam it back a few times until it felt lighter to use.
