I have recently acquired a rather pristine example of an Belgian FAL heavy barrel match
rifle.
It functions flawlessly, but the trigger is abyssmal. It is off the scale I use, but I would estimate it to be 10- 12 pounds or so.
On the plus side, it is very crisp when it finally lets off...

I like to do all of my own gun work, but have never dissected one of these before.
I am looking for suggestions or tips on doing a trigger job on the beast.
Thanks, Mad Dog
