Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles remington xmark trigger

I replaced one of the original X-Mark (without the hole in the triggers face) with a Timney because I didn't want to send the gun in. The pull was pretty good on the X-mark, great on the Timney. I would have left the X-Mark in if it had not been subject to a recall.

I also had to replace an old style Walker trigger that would do the 'Remington moment' thing, despite being clean and free of gunk. It looks like a prior owner 'tuned' the trigger and probably lightened the pull weight a bit too much. Rather than fix it, it gave me more peace of mind to replace it. It never went bang, but it did go click several times while doing safety checks. Even a click when you remove the safety can tighten the sphincter up a bit.

The Timney was better than the 'tuned' Walker, but the tuned walker was pretty good (better than the X-Mark). It is my understanding that the design of the Timney physically prevents the 'Remington moment' thing from happening. I am glad I replaced both of them.
