After Market Trigger for LE Mk 4 no. I
« on: January 31, 2008, 07:20:55 AM »
Are there any after market triggers for the Lee enfield Mk 4 no I?  I finally got one fairly cheap and it was a refurbished one like some of you said.  So I'm not too concerned if I need some adjustments for it but the trigger would be nice to replace.  I see timney makes some but they look like they are for other models.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob

Minnesota1:  Check our sponsors list for major distributors who might carry those.  Also, Bold triggers may have something for the No4.  If the Timney trigger did not look like what you are replacing and you think it might be the wrong one, call them and see what they say.  HTH.  Mikey.

Sorry but I cannot see the need for changing the trigger on the Lee Enfield No1-No4 rifles. The issue trigger can be adapted to be single stage if that is the wish (however I cannot see the need for that either) and can be polished and adjusted to give a trigger break of about 4lbs. The Lee Enfield's were and are still used for serious target shooting in various countries around the world and the trigger has prooven itself to be very good.

Niether of my Lee Enfield's has any creep on the trigger and one being an early model built on a Metford carbine action has the early single stage trigger. I would change neither of them.

   On the later No1's and No4's unless it's the No4 Mk2 the trigger is mounted on the trigger guard and so the stock inletting effects the trigger pull as it changes the angle of the trigger and sear.
