Hi Steve,

the lower receiver less the buttstock assembly, price runs $49 and this
includes priority return postage. I can get it to around 4.5 lbs with a
clean break, all creep eliminated. Turn around time is 24 to 48 hours,
my address is:

I'm glad you guys are finding sources for trigger jobs. We have spent the last several weeks designing a completely new trigger system. We did tons of math and testing lots of other rifles. We've come up with what we think will be perfect. We estimate that the initial pull will be a couple pounds before you hit the disconnect.

I'll try to get it prototyped as soon as possible and let you know the results. Perhaps I'll make a few and let some of the ardent fans test these and give a report. Getting them into production will not be overnight. I just wanted you all to know that we're following up on our promise to get it going.

I'm very happy that others are doing trigger jobs. My only worry is safety - will the the trigger job cause the rifle to fire if the rifle is jarred or dropped. We test the rifles by putting a primered cartridge in the chamber and dropping the rifle from 5' onto a 1/4" steel plate over concrete. This is the military test. The SAAMI test is about 4' on a rubber mat over concrete.

I just hope that you all and the guys doing the work are careful, understand the safety concerns, and do safety testing.

We have also shipped a lower receiver and trigger parts to Williams Triggers. This is not an endorsement of their work. They asked for the parts and we sent them some.

Thanks for all your input.

Sincerely,

Alex J. Robinson
