what is the best cock on opening, trigger combination to get.
None of the above! Seriously, the Numrich etc. cock on opening kits are not so hot. The striker fall is about 5/16". To compensate a powerfull spring is used. That make for a poor trigger. Problem is you can't install a Timney or other aftermarket trigger. The over ride mechanisim saps enough energy to make ignition iffy. So, you have the coking cam welded up, no easy feat to do right, and get your 3/8" srtiker fall. Now you have to modify the cocking piece to make the safety work. It is a can of worms. I suggest you leave it alone.

I believe Dayton Traister makes one that is available either directly or through Brownell's. I have had good luck with the one I installed on a Swede. Comes with it's own adjustable trigger.

The Swede is a different animal. Pretty sure it won't work on a P-14 or 17. Call them and find out though.

Dayton Traister makes a speedlock kit for P14 and P17's. There are 2 different models-one for standard floorplate and one for a straightened floorplate. The triggers that come with are not perfect but are ok for any hunting rifle. Mark
