Abstract

An improved trigger system for lever action rifles that utilize a trigger block safety, comprising a trigger, sear, bushing and springs. The trigger, sear, bushing and springs are assembled as one unit permitting the user to fit the trigger system into an existing rifle without modification. The system eliminates looseness, play, creep and drag found in existing systems.
