I would really like to have a factory adjustable type trigger as I still have a way to lock the bolt when walking in the brush.The INTERARMS mark'X has been carefully designed and produced to successfully recapture the time honored features and performance of the classic, commercial Mauser Model 98 system. This has solved this problem and made bolt cycling much nicer. To solve this I filed out the hole that the replacement trigger mounts on such that the trigger sits about 1/32" more forward. If not moving the bolt fast it felt like it was time to turn down and it would not be far enough forward. The result was that the bolt needed more force then I like to move that last 1/16" or so before turn down. The other is that the sear has some play in it and needs some force to move it forward about 1/32" into contact with the trigger, also the trigger holds the cocking piece about 1/32" further back then the stock sear. One is that I had to remove the original safety so I can no longer lock the bolt. There are two problems with this trigger. I got a replacement adjustable Boyd Trigger with safety from midway for $44, no creep and I adjusted down the pull from the 4.5 lbs to about 3. It had a lot of creep and if I was real careful I could take my finger off the trigger just before it fired and it would stay there, not good. Mine had a trigger like the military type with safety. 416 barrel I guess I could put on it and make something interesting.įrom what I have read these came from the factory with both trigger types. ![]() The other is a magnum so don't know what I'll do with it - I have a. Now to diassemble them and put them in the ultrasonic cleaner to strip away the crud and any light rust. Looked like it had been on the gun for a long time but no way to tell when it was installed. One had a Redfield base and rings that date to the 60s or early 70s. stamped between the screw holes for the receiver sight - something like 0577 - perhaps the hole spacing? Appears that the two would interchange.īoth are drilled for a receiver sight - one was not tapped for front sight so there would have been no reason to drill & tap it. The other has a more elaborate trigger similar to those used on many later style mausers. The earlier - judging by the SN - has an interesting adaptation of a military style trigger with a side safety added. I ran across a deal for two beat up rifles so that is the origin of having two similar guns at the same time.īoth are stamped "Zastava Yugoslavia" on the left tang. I've fooled with quite a few mausers but this is the first time for these. ![]()
