Huber Trigger in my 24/47 (Adjustments/Expectations)

Anyone ever deal with John Huber's adjustable two-stage triggers in a Mauser. A couple years ago I was so frustrated trying to get his dual ball bearing adjustable two-stage in my M48 I had to send the barreled action to him to dial in. It's not bad but not amazing. Like my M48, I cloned my 24/47 into Yugo civil war era sniper. I’d like to have a nice modern two-stage adjustable (or not) feel with hopefully a 1-2lb free and easy first stage meeting a 3ish lb break over The Wall. I’d rather not go Timney, as I understand, will require dramatic modification of the stocks.

M48 24-47 Yugo SKS.jpg


I'd like to do the same with my mint-barrel Persian 98/29 but am wary of any stock mod as that's far more valuable/rare than M48s or 24/47s. Gunsmiths and precision shooter (especially Fudd sporters guys) have been tweaking, building, modifying Mauser actions for decades. I spoke at length with John a couple years ago and, while no doubt a brilliant man, went off on all kinds of tangents that I just could not follow i.e. psychology of the “break” and timing theory about meeting and crossing “the wall”. One of those guys that’s possibly on “the Spectrum” (whatever that mean nowadays). I just couldn’t follow. The million-times photocopied notes and hand-drawings that he includes with his trigger are just too cryptic for me to make sense of.

While I can field strip pretty much any rifle I own I am admittedly a bit ignorant and am not competent to make do-it-yourself modifications. I am not up to filing, grinding, etc, an would rather bring o send the rifle to someone who can. I finally wrote this note (below) to him and look forward to how he responds.

John, I put your 2-stage in my 24/47. Unlike the M48 a couple years ago I will need to relive the stock a little it. Not prepared to commit to that just yet.

The initial 1st stage travel weight to the wall is around 4 lb and at the break is around 6lb. Worse than the original stock trigger.

How to lighten up initial pull?


  • Is it a matter of snipping off small bits of the trigger’s sear spring to lighten?
  • Are there lighter versions out there commercially? I checked Wolff www.gunsprings.com and they don’t appear to sell anything
  • Sometimes when I half-pull the trigger and release it just dangles as loose.
Bearing adjustments.

  • I’ve twisted and played with the bearing screws several times in many directions and just can’t really achieve anything meaningful other than fire/no-fire.
My hope/goal is to get a fairly light initial pull that breaks at “the wall” at about 3ish lbs. Can this be done with your trigger set? Any other modifications? People have been tweaking and modifying Mauser actions for years so I have to imagine I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel with my aspirations, although, I am not a do-it-yourselfer. Was hoping this would be a drop in affair with basic tweaks to dial in.

Any thoughts or ideas on how to get a match/precision style trigger (if not this one) in a milsurp rifle w/o mods?

(BTW, on an unrelated note, Josh Smiths adjustable 2-stage triggers for 91/30 are amazing and simple to install tweak. A REAL plus for any PU Sniper shooters).

SOLD 2015 Accuracy International AX SA .308 20" Pale Brown

Selling a used AI AX308. This is a post-2014 (2015) model with the ability to swap barrels by simply loosening the tightening nut. This rifle comes with the OEM AI 20" barrel chambered for .308. The round count is unknown as I bought the rifle used, but I have put around 2000 rounds on the barrel and it still groups sub-moa with ease. Also included is the AI muzzle brake and OEM AI magazine in Pale Brown.

SOLD


Zelle, USPS MO for payment. Would also prefer a FTF here in DFW, but we can discuss shipping options. If your receiving FFL requires I send from an FFL we can work that out as well.

The only trades id be interested in would be some sort of trade deal on a AI AW or KAC SR25 EC or EMC.

Please note: The bipod is not included.

SOLD Vortex Impact 4000

Vortex Impact 4000 $1250 shipped and insured. SOLD
Comes with original packaging, including zero targets and and everything pictured, the only items missing are the velcro tabs (loop), microfiber cloth, and T10 Tool (still looking for it). Im providing a Holosun T10 Tool as a replacement until I find the tool, never took it out of the gun room. The velcro tabs were all used, for some reason they didnt work as well as normal velcro loop tape (which I will provide 2 strips). Pic, keymod, and mLok attachments were never used or mounted.

Had this for a little over a year, seen a few matches but always took care of it. Only installed the battery before use, and removed after. The marks on the bolts are from my torque wrench (its a tight fit).

I accept most digital forms of payment, and we can discuss payment options if necessary.

I will ship USPS Priority, unless requested otherwise (pay the difference).

Please PM me first before posting to avoid scammers contacting you. Ill go by the timestamp in the messages of who is first if this is a hot item. haha.
