If so how do you like and what was your initial reason for putting it in? ------------- If all else fails call in a MOAB and call it a day |

Yes MaiMai, there is a guy on the lower mainland of British Columbia that makes them for the No1's & No4's, trying to find the website I saw them on.
One of the guys at the base has just picked up a No4 and it needs a bit of work, he mention to me he didn't like the trigger pull on it.
I suggestion he take her apart to see what kind of build up there is on the springs and trigger release, to which he asked if I had any experience with adj triggers on these.
I don't soo I figured someone on here would
when I find the page I'll post it here ------------- If all else fails call in a MOAB and call it a day |

I've been scratching my head over this one, but I reckon a Parker Hale I owned years ago had a Timney adjustable trigger .I know it wasn't a original. Dave |

The Timney's are definitely less expensive then the Canwest ones, but I are you able to adjust the sear engagement/creep on those, or just the pull weight?

$139 for the trigger unit and it needs a smith to fit it according to the writeup. Try a six inch nail and a hammer!! Much cheaper and loadsa fun !!!

| Going to the range with the LongBranch that was fitted with the trigger this weekend. I will look for a manufacturer stamp when I take her down for cleaning. |

Thatnks, Cookie personally I think best bang for your buck, or buck for your bang depending on how you wanna look at it is the Timney ------------- If all else fails call in a MOAB and call it a day |

Come on now Tony, A six inch nail indeed.
Less informed members might be inclined to believe you and try this for themselves. Believe me using a six inch nail is a dangerous practice.
I use nothing bigger than a four inch nail myself.

Personally I prefer the 6inch nail over the 4 inch ,as I have found the 4inch to be to dangerous! As there's to much chance of missing with the hammer & hitting your fingers  Dave |

| I guess the 6 inch is ok if you sharpen the point a little as the point is too large for the dia of the primer, plus, I have a whole box of 4 inch and I would have to buy 6 inch. |
