Thread: Timney Trigger Causing Light Primer Strikes

I honestly couldn't tell that mine was mushroomed but @gundoc got it sorted and its never showed up again

rounded might be a better description. needed to be more pointy

Sounds like the trigger timing is out of wack given there is a measurable difference of protrusion at the rear of the bolt when cocked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWnv58mfVZY

Yes, I've had this problem. I contacted Timney and they knew straight away what the problem was and posted a replacement sear to me. No questions, no cost.

Standard trigger...



Timney trigger...

Mine still isn't perfect. Federal 205 primers go off much more reliably than CCI 450's but even they aren't 100% including getting a click on that wallaby headshot in the 7.62x39 subsonic thread.

I've got a speedlock kit coming next, as the gunsmith reckoned the heavy remington firing pins were contributing to the problem.
