    You can get them from savage directly, but you will have to have them sent to a gun smith or an FFL.

    I have found some stainless steel sears, and they seem to be more forgiving when bending them plus the coolness factor, they are 21 bucks I have the part number, so PM me if you want it because I am not posting it on the forum, since some one scooped all they others up "shame on them" and if you do PM me make sure you are contributing member of this forum post wise, please don't ask me for the part number if you have a half dozen posts, I will give it to you but only after I feel all the frequent posting members have had a chance to get there's a couple at a time hopefully.

    Savage never made them in stainless....they are just plated to look that way. Also the "silver " sears were never made in the accutrigger version, which has a staggered notch in the center of the engaging surface.

    I ordered a side release sear as soon as I saw scope eye's post. I got it and was able to bend slightly and attach to my action and it worked. But it looked like there was a stress fracture had started at the bend. It snapped when I tried to bend back closer to the action with only a slight amount of pressure. So go slowly, check often and don't bend more than absolutely necessary to just clear the action or it will snap as noted by sharpshooter.

    You should be able to braze that back with 5 or 6% silver brazing rods like what is used in the hvac industry. Make sure you clean it good and use paste on it. You should be able to do it with propane but if you have access to oxy/acety then use a small tip like a number 1 or so. You dont need to get it too hot, as soon as the steel start turning red you are closer to the temp. It is under 200% probably...

    Any updates on this subject?

    Anyone experience problems with sears breaking?

    New part numbers that maybe work even better?

    It occurs to me if you want to use heat to bend the lever but not affect sear hardness, you could heat sink an area right between the two.

    Also, I believe there may be some type of paste that will prevent some heat transfer occuring on the covered area of a part... but that might be hazy memory.

    When you change the sear does it make the pull feel a lot heavier?

    it does. if you look at both sear the accutriger one has a notch on the surface where it contacts with the trigger. I assume than this reduces the area of the sear that contacts the trigguer thus reducing friction. I think I was able to get a 1 lbs crisp trigger pull. could not get it any lighter and I have no need for lower pull so I haven't play much with that or that rifle for that matter. once I get a 22-250 9 Twist for that action I will play with it more.

    Well i have the law enforcement accutrigger so right now it's at a pound and a half which is fine for my purposes. So would it be heavier than that or the same?

    I have not play with that one but I would not be surprised it does get heavier.
