I would really like to have a factory adjustable type trigger as I still have a way to lock the bolt when walking in the brush. This has solved this problem and made bolt cycling much nicer. To solve this I filed out the hole that the replacement trigger mounts on such that the trigger sits about 1/32" more forward. ![]() If not moving the bolt fast it felt like it was time to turn down and it would not be far enough forward. The result was that the bolt needed more force then I like to move that last 1/16" or so before turn down. The other is that the sear has some play in it and needs some force to move it forward about 1/32" into contact with the trigger, also the trigger holds the cocking piece about 1/32" further back then the stock sear. One is that I had to remove the original safety so I can no longer lock the bolt. The left side of the receiver is marked Mark X, with a logo, Alexandria / Virginia, Interarms and Manchester / England. 270 Winchester Action Type: Bolt Action with Hinged Floorplate Magazine Markings: The left side of the barrel is marked Cal.270. There are two problems with this trigger. Make: Interarms (Made in Manchester, England) Model: Mark X Viscount Serial Number: B219255 Year of Manufacture: 1977 (From Receiver Date Code) Caliber. I got a replacement adjustable Boyd Trigger with safety from midway for $44, no creep and I adjusted down the pull from the 4.5 lbs to about 3. It had a lot of creep and if I was real careful I could take my finger off the trigger just before it fired and it would stay there, not good. LEFT SIDE OF GUN STATES: ALEXANDRIA VIRGINIA INTERARMS MANCHESTER ENGLAND. Mine had a trigger like the military type with safety. 416 barrel I guess I could put on it and make something interesting.įrom what I have read these came from the factory with both trigger types. The other is a magnum so don't know what I'll do with it - I have a. Now to diassemble them and put them in the ultrasonic cleaner to strip away the crud and any light rust. Looked like it had been on the gun for a long time but no way to tell when it was installed. One had a Redfield base and rings that date to the 60s or early 70s. stamped between the screw holes for the receiver sight - something like 0577 - perhaps the hole spacing? Appears that the two would interchange.īoth are drilled for a receiver sight - one was not tapped for front sight so there would have been no reason to drill & tap it. The other has a more elaborate trigger similar to those used on many later style mausers. The earlier - judging by the SN - has an interesting adaptation of a military style trigger with a side safety added. I ran across a deal for two beat up rifles so that is the origin of having two similar guns at the same time.īoth are stamped "Zastava Yugoslavia" on the left tang. I've fooled with quite a few mausers but this is the first time for these. On target has my appreciation and thanks for making my boys first gun shop experience a superb one, they were on a high the rest of the day.Thanks for the information. I know there are bigger shops around, but talk about a gem of a local, I was very impressed. I’m sold and won’t bother going anywhere else. I’d given him a budget and he could have stretched me out a bit as most shops do, but no, his recommendations and advice were honest, very believable and he couldn’t have spent more time and effort with us, from running thorugh the best options, taking us outside with a few scopes for the boys to try, right down to doing a bit of a discount on a quote. ![]() Glenn actually talked us down a bit on rifles, and up a bit on scopes, and it made total sense. Talk about a fantsatic, low pressure, informative experience. We wandered int he shop on a Saturday arvo, met Glenn, and the best part was he shook my boys hands and talked to THEM as much as me. I had only got my license and filled out two PTA’s the day before, so I wasn’t able to buy anything as yet. I’m a brand new licenced shooter, and wanted my boys to get good advice and take the time to let them make their own decisions. I wanted to find a shop that would take the time to help my two teenage sons through their first 22.
