changing triggers

Post by chuckhunter »

I have a Savage 93 hmr, I want to get a rifle basix trigger for it. Has anybody swapped theirs out and if so, how hard was it? The web site makes it look so easy. Thanks in advance.

I've installed most if not all of the major brands of triggers in many rifles, and I'd offer that if you possess a even moderate level of mechanical competence, you'll have no problem at all installing a Rifle Basix trigger in your Savage. It's not rocket science by any means, just follow the instructions included with the trigger.

When you're finished, you'll be considering changing the factory triggers in some of your other rifles, it's that easy and very much worth the time and effort involved. :D

I've also changed out a few triggers on my varmint rifles. I don't own a Savage rifle, but replacing their trigger, I wouldn't think will be all that big of a deal. Just follow Rick's advice and you will do just fine. :wink:

RIO is spot on as usual!! Thanks for being so helpful here. It certainly isn't said often enough. Your participation is greatly appreciated & your experience is invaluable.

I've installed 2 RifleBasix in Marlin rimfires & they are easy to swap & adjust. Plus there is a live person answering the phone if you need their help.

Just make sure it is safe. Do the drop test and make sure rifle does not discharge accidentally, before loading live ammo in it. Also check for a slam fire situation :eek: before loading with live ammo!
