Title: Reinstall trigger/sear assembly on an 1896 KRAG
Post by Zgun on Feb 8th, 2018 at 6:00pm
Hi All,

I removed the sear/trigger from a 1896 Krag rifle to clean the parts as they were full of gunk and grime from the last who knows how many years.  Removing the assembly was straight forward.  Putting the sear back in the receiver not so easy as you have to compress the heavy sear spring while trying to fit the front of the sear into it's drilled hole in the receiver.

Any suggestions on how this can be done with a minimum of colorful language being muttered? Has anyone engineered a clamp for this operation ?
