Title: Kibler triggers
Post by: web365ster on July 09, 2024, 06:20:02 PM
Some where I read a post that set triggers had been installed in a Kibler. Hoping it was on this site, could someone point me in the right direction?

The topic has been brought up. BUT  what Kibler model are you curious about?

ALSO: It has been noted that even though some set triggers might fit into the trigger guard bow they will or might not be in the optimum position in relation to the sear unless the trigger guard is moved.   :-\

I made it work with Davis triggers in a 58 Colonial. It is a bit of work but can be done.

The SMR has set triggers as made. 

The others do not, but they have excellent triggers.  The trigger pulls are lighter than the Geissele  triggers on my match rifles. 

As stated adapting a set trigger will involve adding patches to the stock.

Not enough room in the Woodsrunner.

That Colonial shown above looks nice.  The set triggers give it a good look as well.  I would like to do set triggers for the Colonial, but there's always more important priorities it seems.  I think I actually started designing some years ago.  I'll have to check and see.

I had a Colonial with set triggers done by Mike Brooks.  He had to put fillers on both sides of the inlet, because the single trigger plate is wider than the set trigger plate.  Done right it is just about invisible.  It adds a little to the LOP.
