Broken?

Acu Trigger or non acu trigger?

Acu has the blade in the middle of the trigger (silver thingy most likely)

It's not an accutrigger . It is a coil spring . This rifle was made before 1995 I think . The serial # was not available on Savage's site , and they advised that they dont supply parts for rifles made before '95 (I think). I was bedding the stock and punched the pin on the trigger group -shot that spring behind my workbench somewhere.

Do you remember if it's 'legs' were at 180 or 90 degrees to each other and did it use a bushing in the coils? I have one with the 90 legs and one 180 that used the bushing. IIRC you can use the 90 either way. If you can't locate one shoot me a PM, I'll send you which ever you need.

It's just a coil spring, take one out of an ink pen and use it, if one isn't enough, use 2

This, There are the factory springs and there is the mod. Lots of you tube stuff.

He needed a sear 'torsion" spring, not a trigger reset-WOP coil spring. The non-AT factory triggers didn't use a coil spring anywhere. When he said " [I] punched the pin on the trigger group -shot that spring behind my workbench somewhere" I knew exactly what he launched! I'm sending him one sometime today or tomorrow.

I lost one of those springs before. Never found it.

When Brownells had them in stock I ordered a few. In the meantime I made something from a bobby pin or something like that and it worked until I received the springs from brownells.

I lost one and made one out of some piano wire from the hardware store, Just wrapped it around a pencil and then clipped it to length. That was years ago and it's been working fine ever since.
