Uberti 1886 Sporter vs Pedersoli 1886 Far west both 45-70
I am interested in a heavy 45-70 levergun. Sadly the new manufacture Winchester 1886 with 24" bbl is a fine looker but the crescent buttplate renders it impractical for 40 shot silhouette target shooting eg CLA. The Uberti 1886 Sporter with 26" barrel and shotgun buttplate and checkered pi...

Re: Win 94 better trigger pull with 1/2 cock hammer or rebounding
Thanks, Nath. Your earlier post said to replace the trigger coil spring (the first stage spring that clicks etc) did you simply replace or also modify it? Also I leave the full cock notch on the hammer alone and simply work on the sear angle, yes? I presume where it mates with the full cock notch.

Nath very interesting results. 2LBS with no creep would be fantastic. Not sure what you mean by the "first stage spring". Is this the right fork of the split trigger/sear spring lying in/on the bottom trigger plate? Not sure how to replace that independently of the other fork. Also did you...

Re: Win 94 better trigger pull with 1/2 cock hammer or rebounding
Thanks for the (re) welcome I was off-site a long time and finally got thru to a site administrator today. My skill set is below average--I know my limitations, but I have read Mohave Gambler's sticky on this site on smoothing out an early 94 AE with the rebounding hammer. Just can't tell if worth t...

Win 94 better trigger pull with 1/2 cock hammer or rebounding
Hello Have just discovered a great bp load for my late issued 94 AE with rebounding hammer and tang safety BUT from bench only. The trigger has looong travel creep etc etc. which makes (for me) horrible offhand attempts at hitting the 200 m ram. I am considering replacing several parts to convert th...
