Piece O' Cake!!!!
This Trigger is awesome. The original factory triggers have so much flop that you would think they were broke if you didn't know better. Not this one, with it installed it there is no flop and along with just polishing the hammer where it meets up with the trigger you can get this down to a crisp 2 pound pull. You already have the hammer out its worth the 5 mins. to to polish it up. A true Drop-In no fitting at all has to be done.
Incredable improvement
The original trigger is by far the worst part on the marlin 336. Changing it to the wild west trigger offers you a new world. It is excellent but expensive. Did the replacement on my own.
Huge improvement over factory trigger
This is a wonderful upgrade to my 444 Marlin. It is nice & crisp with no takeup & very little overtravel, compared to factory trigger it is the difference between night & day. No trigger scale to check poundage..sorry but 50% less would be my estimate. Great trigger nuff said. Rusty
Big Improvement
Cut trigger pull from 6 to about 3 pounds. Very well made. Nice feel along with a very clean break. Also installed Brownells Marlin Hammer spring kit. Very pleased with the results. I should add this is for my 1895.
"No Flop, No More!
I installed the trigger on my Marlin 1894 44mag. The trigger was well machined and installation was simple. Unfortunately the trigger alone did not produce a 2 -3 lb pull. I actually realized a 3.5 - 4 lb trigger pull after performing a minor stock spring modification. A 3.5 lb pull is just fine for hunting applications which is what I will be using my rifle for.
TRIGGER FLOP GONE, REDUCED TRIGGER PULL
Reduced trigger pull from 5.5 lbs to 3.5 lbs on my Marlin 336. It's a really nice clean break with no flop. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I wish it was a tad cheaper. But would recommend it.
Simple No Fit Install
No fitting required install in my post Remington buy-out Marlin 336C. Vast improvement in the trigger pull when coupled with the Brownells spring kit 080-000-192WB. Instructions are not included but step by step install go-by's are easily googled up.
Spend the money, It's worth it
The Marlin Guide gun has been on my bucket list for quite awhile. I finally bought one about 6 months ago, and love the gun with the exception of the trigger. If you don't know what creep means, pull the trigger on a Marlin. Last night I tore the gun down using one of the several tutorials I found on line. While I had it all apart, I polished all the parts and installed the new trigger. It's fantastic. In the comments someone posed the question, why doesn't Marlin just start using this type of design in their new guns? That is a good question. When you put it back together, don"t tighten the screws on the receiver until you get the hammer screw back in. It took me about 15 minutes of head scratching to figure out why I couldn't get the hammer screw holes to line up. The price only hurts until you see the results, and I learned a lot about the gun in the process.
The best Marlin upgrade.
This is the best upgrade you can do for your Marlin 1895 in .450 Marlin. Lighter pull than the factory, no slop in the pull and as long as you know the basics about your guns internals it is pretty easy to install. Haven't measured the pull weight but you most definitely can feel the difference. Kinda like replacing an old k98 Mauser trigger with a Timney Sportsman. The only thing that would improve this trigger is if it had about a pound and a half pull. I like them light.
Well made, Looks and works well.
I installed this in an older 336 (mid 80 ) gun. It took a lot of work ie fitting and polishing to get in . Once done it works great very crisp trigger pull ,and no slop . I also polished the hammer since it was on the bench ,made a nice job.
