Never did my own trigger on a 700, I mean install one. I am going to get a Timmney 517, the rifle it is going on has no trigger at all. My question is what will I need to buy besides the trigger itself. ie: pins/bolt stop etc... Also if there are any easier triggers to install, let me know. Thanks all
 
Re: Trigger Questions

You need to call Timmney and ask them if it comes with new pins and the bolt stop,bolt release, spring, ball and c-clip. I had one aftermarket trigger that I had to use all my old pieces...I think a Rifle Basik and not a Timmney. If it comes naked, you can get the pieces from Brownell's.
 
Re: Trigger Questions

If the 517 comes with the safety and bolt release all you will need are the pins, bolt stop and bolt stop spring. Pretty simple to install.
