the new e-action
recently savage changed the rimfire actions to the e-action which works for both 22lr and 22mag. both rifles use the accutrigger. the mark II is also made with a crappy standard trigger.
now since the actions are identical, why won't savage retro fit the accutrigger to the non-accutrigger action?
also that savage gunsmith out west won't do it either. WHY??? ???
getting info out of savage is like pulling teeth.
thx if you can help

Re: the new e-action
There's more to it than meets the eye, the actions are NOT identical...The non accutrigger receivers use a completely different bolt than the accutrigger models. The new E receiver accutrigger models have a different accutrigger than the first version.
Savage will not retro- fit anything, they are in the business of selling guns, not upgrading them.

Re: the new e-action
plus one action is longer than the other, and the mounting bolt spacing is different.

Re: the new e-action
thanks for the replies. it's a beautiful rifle but that trigger is awful.
I did shim it and it's improved but now all I can do is hope rifle basix makes a sear for it someday.
