Rear screw should be sear engagement. Bottom front should be trigger weight. There should be a spring behind that screw. Top should be overtravel. It appears to be a Remington style trigger and so the instructions for adjusting those should apply to this. Where did all the lint come from?

There you are. Sorry I lost the notes on the instructions you gave me.

This is the other Mato which you haven't worked on so you are not responsible. You know I couldn't see that lint until I took a macro picture of it. I cleaned it off when I saw it in the pic.

I was adjusting the bottom screw out and it finally got so far out that the screw came out and exposed the spring. I did manage to get it back in and turned one full turn to engage enough threads to make it safe, but it still is over 5 pounds according to my scale.

Is there some other way to reduce the pull weight? Should I mess with the sear engagement or is that just to reduce creep?
