10/22 Upgrade Question

[Jack]

Jon, the factory trigger probably won't be very good on a basic model. There are lots of ways to improve the trigger pull, though.
Improvements can range in price from little to as much as the rifle cost. Captain's recommendation of a Volquartsen hammer is a good start- there are other brands, too. A replacement hammer or sear (or both) is going to be at the low end , price wise. At the high end, Volquartsen and others make an entire replacement trigger assembly, trigger guard and all, that's a drop in- and costs as much as a new rifle.
Consulting your local gunsmith isn't a bad idea- maybe a new sear and a bit of hand fitting would do the job- it did on mine.
