Spare 10/22 trigger?

TruthTellers · May 20, 2018, 08:52 PM

I'm planning on buying a BX trigger ground for a Ruger Charger I have and it's making me consider what I can do with the factory trigger group. How much could I sell it for?

It's a pretty common part to replace and replacements are widely available for as little as $53 or so.

My speculative guess is that a used stock part would be worth maybe half that.

What would be the usefulness of a spare factory trigger group when an improved one can be purchased for very little money? Back-up? Just in case? And besides, the internals in factory 10/22 trigger groups are inexpensive and rough as corn cobs. If I felt the need for a spare trigger group, I would just buy another BX.

Should you ever have to send the gun to Ruger - for anything - they are going to replace the third party parts.
You'll probably get your BX back - but - -stuff does happen.

If you take it out and replace the factory trigger group before you send it in, that might be a wiser choice.

Plus, how much are you looking at in terms of money vs the time spent packing it up and sending it off to someone?

I did the same thing by upgrading to the BX trigger. I sold the stock trigger for $25. Better than it just laying around, collecting dust.

There are factors that come into play and I routinely do trigger work on this "little Beauties" …..

I think this is a valid point.

It would be interesting to see if Ruger considers the Ruger BX trigger to be a "third party" part.

"...they are going to replace the third party parts..." And I think they keep 'em.
"...$53 or so..." Gunparts wants that much for the Trigger Guard Assembly alone.
You're likely best to put the factory trigger in a box and put it some place safe. But not so safe you forget where it is. snicker.

The "trigger guard assembly" includes all the trigger parts. If you want just the trigger guard minus all the rest of the trigger parts, Gunparts has them for just over $16.

You can find an new trigger guard assembly (all trigger parts included) for about $48 if you shop around.

That is the correct term for this item although we are use to using the term; Trigger Group. Some times you have to use your interpretation to understand what is being said. I have seen OEM Trigger Guard assemblies on eBay sell for less than $50.00. ……

Be Safe !!!

Just jump onto eBay or Gunbroker. $20 to $25 would be a fair price. Personally, I'd just keep the thing as spare parts.
