    Gunsmithing Trigger Swap Question

    Re: Trigger Swap Question Thanks for the replies so far. I'm a lefty and am in the process of procuring LH bolt rifles as I'm tired of shooting "wrong-handed" guns. I have a GAP build in the works, but it'll be this fall/winter before I receive it. Right now, I'm procuring a LH SPS Varmint to...

    Gunsmithing Trigger Swap Question

    I've done a search here but can't find the info I need. I don't care for the X Mark Pro triggers, but when I look at other triggers, such as Timney, Shilen and others, most lack a safety lever.

    Gunsmithing Factory M700 Trigger Wobble

    I took delivery of a Shilen "standard" trigger today and am somewhat disappointed it's shape. It's narrow and non-serrated which is a stark contrast to the factory Remington trigger, which is wider and serrated, that I was replacing. I recently received my rifle from GAP - an M700 w/factory...

    Gunsmithing McMillan HTG / Wichita Sling Swivel Question

    I have a McMillan HTG stock that's factory equipped with Wichita sling swivels. My question is, can I replace the Wichita's with regular sling studs?
