Yes I believe you can fit a magazine box & floorplate to it.  Why would you want add a trigger to it.  M70's have about the best trigger out there , factory or aftermarket.

My hunting partner just had a ranger in 30/06 given to him,the gun has been sitting in a closet for the last 15+ years and only has ever had less then a box of ammo shot throw it.At first we were going to refinish the stock on it but I found a early black shadow stock that was a perfect fit.The stock was bought off E bay for 33.00 plus shiping.

RAM-Line also makes a blind magizine stock for the ranger
