djsmithLooking for guidance in removing a new Ruger #1 trigger
I was hoping that someone had a website recommendation or could hand hold me through the proper process of removing the trigger on a 2015 Ruger 1. The trigger is set at a hard 7.5# and I was either going to try to replace it with a Kiplinger or have it stoned to see if it can be lessened/improved.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

dpcdSure; here how I do it; remove the stocks; both of them must come off. Place a pin in the mainspring strut and pull the trigger. Remove all screws and pins (you need two screwdrivers for the main pivot pin). Drop the lever and shake everything out into a container. That's it.
There are you tube videos on it too. Your owners manual shows you how it fits back together; they are very simple things.

dpcdYeah. It will take you about ten tries to get it back together but no one can teach you that. One tip is to hold the lever-block link assembly in one hand, all together, whilst inserting it back into the frame, while at the same time holding the extractor and spring in place with your third hand. Do not let that little roller on the side of the block fall out and roll under your bench. I probably have a few down there....
It ain't hard.
