Sounds like you have that covered. Enjoy!



The weird trigger remark valid in some Sears Model 50 rifles. Something of an unheralded fact, some of these rifles with two piece triggers, lower half pinned to bottom metal! Really!
Below a Sears Model 50 ad Website. Looking carefully at the exposed view upper right, to observe such two-piece triggers. The question as to whether to 'swap-in' a conventional mauser 98 trigger, I've never seen an answer. Just as much, wishing to know the "why" of such. My only WAG is possibly FN dictating "not the same action as their considerably more expensive Firearms International Corp, FN rifle import offering! My belief one of the quality FN model aftermarket triggers available would likely fit such FN produced action. The barrel should be High Standard, manufacture featuring chrome bore.

These JC Higgins Model 50 rifles, branding and physical countenance, "quality understated" were absolute sleepers! I bough a few in 'the day'! ONe packaged with original early Higgins scope (Weaver - as I recall).

Congrats!!!
Best & Stay Safe!
