Got out the file, caliper and dremel tonight. Took measurements of the Timney sear and slowly removed .030 from the front of the sear (.279 -.249) and slightly rounded the edges. Didn't touch any of the surface the cocking piece touches to drop and polished everything up. Works great.

Cleaned everything up, added a drop of blue loctite to the set screw that puts tension on the trigger assembly and found a clearance dusty storage room Tasco 3x9x32 for under $20 to replace the 1980's Simmons 4x32. Can't wait to take this to the range to sight in and see my dads face when he gets to shoot it.
