Hey guys,
Just purchased a brand new 336 for the upcoming season. Disassembled the action to Installed a Wild West Guns trigger rather than try to stone the original sear and notch. WWG is sure proud of their trigger, but it certainly works. It was a drop-in (no modifications required). While I had the hammer out I noticed the tip of the hammer sear notch had a secondary lip sticking out. Stoned the lip off and installed the new WWG trigger. Trigger pull dropped from 4.5 lbs to smooth and crisp 2.25 lbs. Also installed a replacement kit for the Marlin cross-bolt safety. It eliminates the cross-bolt and is nicely finished to look like a screw. I don't know if Clyde Ludwig is still making and selling these. I picked up two from him close to 5 years ago for $9.95 + $3.00 shipping. Used one on a custom Marlin .45-70, and the other one now. Now all I need is to figure out how to drill and tap the lever for a trigger stop.
