I was looking at new triggers and I figured it'd be simpler if I could take the accutrigger off. I want to remove the little safety tab thing. I have nothing against the triggers I just want to try it without the safety device. How can I remove the safety thing? Is it simple?
That is not a "safety thing" it is a set trigger. You will be, IMO, compromising the safety of the rifle if you remove it. The safety is located on the tang of the receiver.
First of all, it IS a safety thing, and second it is NOT a set trigger. The safety blade insures no accidental dischages if the trigger is not deliberately pulled. Removing the blade will negate the safety feature and if the bolt handle is cycled too rough, it WILL fire. Better off leave it alone!
thanks sharpshooter. What is a good trigger as a replacement? I like a light trigger pull with some travel to it
Look at Sharpshooter's web site he makes and sells the best triggers ever made for a Savage.Quote:

i was looking at the competition trigger from sharpshooter supply. has anybody used this trigger? it looks like a really good trigger. would it be easy to install? it says its a drop in trigger. any instructions or tips on how to put a new trigger in would be great
The Comp trigger is easy to install, and is a awesome trigger. It doesn't have much travel to it, but it is one of the best triggers around.
Whats so difficult about taking up the slack (accutrigger safety blade) and squeezing the rest of the way. Pretty hard to beat a 1.5lb FACTORY trigger with no creep that breaks like glass dont you think?
Nothing is wrong with the trigger and it has suited me very well I'd just like to try something else
Having shot Savages with old three screw adjustable trigger, newer Accua-Triggers, Stevens non-adjustable and Sharp Shooters Supplys competition trigger there is no doubt as too which is the better trigger. In descending order of preferrance--SSS Competition, Accua-Trigger, Savage three screw and last place the Stevens non-adjustable. Also tried the Rifle Basix Sav-2 trigger and wasn't impressed by its installation, operation or adjustment.
