What's your favorite milsurp trigger?

[RdKill]

I don't know if it's the trigger or the nostalgia feeling like actually swinging the hammer of Thor or Excalibur or something I get when shooting a Garand...not sure why it is, but no other milsurp rifle gives me near the thrill I get from that 8 rounds and especially that 8th round ping of superior firepower God Bless the USA awesomeness...Best thing about a Garand trigger...Whatever finger you have on it, is currently relatively safe from being smashed by the bolt.

Last place goes to my 1912 Luger...Luger triggers suck...

meh. The trigger on both my 1939 Mauser 42s rock. When dry the triggers do suck. A little froglube in there and bam. Smooth as butter.

As for best trigger it must go to my polish Radom. That is one smooth single action trigger.

Garand thumb ain't no joke. I watched a friend get it. His pain flew through the air and I felt it deep down in my soul.

Friends don't let friends get Garand thumb...

And a Luger trigger will never be the same as a 1911...

Well a 1911 will never have the sex appeal of the Luger. So that settles that.

One that works every time I pull it.

View attachment 266775i would have to say the swedish M96 trigger is my favorite

Nice swede

I'd have to agree, swedish mausers have the nicest triggers of all my milsurps.

6.5 is a great round.....I was split between it and the 7.5 swiss a while ago and ended up staying with the Swiss just because of the availability of surplus ammo and the cool rifle variants that are available.

Oh yeah, I hear the Swiss rifles are top-notch. As I understand it both are highly regarded for accuracy in the vintage rifle circuits.

Garand thumb is one of those things you only ever do once. I bet there isn't a person alive or dead that ever did that twice. I know I'll never do it again The main lesson I learned having one break my thumb for me...I don't care how strong you think you are, your pinky finger is not strong enough to hold the slide open while you depress the follower with your thumb.
