Me thunks the screw the lad is asking about is how the older trigger hinge pins were secured.

No, I'm asking about the set screw on the "back of the trigger". ::)
Blue, the tech section doesn't address this one. I'm more than familiar with the normal two vertical ones as well as the one that some have on the front, but I've never seen this one before. As to the hinge pins, looks like it rivetted on.

Might have something to do with the horizontal wobble ???

My mistake. The two rearmost screws, if its the trigger you have in the pic, do the same as the pre-ATs. The rear one is the safety adjustment, the second one is the trigger over travel.

Again looking at the picture the hing pin is a slotted set screw.

Or...you have an aftermarket trigger. Two different brands of my aftermarket triggers have the mid trigger screw - keeps everything aligned.
