sending in my ruger for service and...

Norrick · April 19, 2010, 08:29 PM

I have an aftermarket trigger installed. I was wondering if I should replace the factory trigger before sending it in.

My concerns are, will they return my trigger along with the rifle (don't know if parts will be serviced/swapped out/etc).

Wonder if they'd answer that question on the phone? If I had any doubt I'd replace the factory trigger. S&W routinely puts factory springs and other parts in when servicing their guns. Suspect other makers do as well.

Take the trigger out and stick the factory one in. I wouldn't assume anything. They are famous for yanking out non-factory parts.

I would send it back stock to the factory. I do not think many factories recognize aftermarket parts as friendly to their arm.

You would probably not get your aftermarket trigger back. Unauthorized installation and deviation from factory specs...thank your cheeseeaters.
