Trigger work
« on: February 20, 2006, 10:22:03 PM »
Thanks to Raynors description of lightning the trigger I sucessfully lightened my trigger to 3 1/4lb,
Due to taking the three pins out at once I didn't see where the hammer spring lived and then I managed to jam the hammer against the barrel opening lever, so another pin out and another spring to sought out, due to my lack of mechanical skill it took me 4 hours to sought out how and why each part worked and where they went and which order they go back in :oops: , the good news is I know could do it all in whole less time and know how my H&R works :lol:
Regards Howard

Howard I know what you mean about getting the stinking thing back togather! Man the first time was a Pain in the A$$, but after you do it a couple times it does get easier thats for sure. The spring is what messed with me the most too :x  :)

Perklo's instructions have always been in the FAQ, everyone needs to read the FAQ, you're missing a LOT of good info that applies to your Handis. Fred M has a section on triggers, also. :wink:

12 oz trigger

I followed all the links and took my trigger apart and did all the magic work.  Now it breaks at a clean and measured 12-14 oz.  A bit lighter than I wanted but it works just fine.  It is now no longer a hunting rifle only a bench rester.  Don
