    Sear problem 110


    I am trying to install a new trigger in a 110 replacing the old Savage trigger. When I finally got the old one out the sear came apart. The sear pin had been peened over it had been inserted from the spring side. I can't find a new sear tried SS they are out Brownells on backorder and Savage won't sell to me since I'm not gunsmith.
    I used JB Weld then Crazy glue neither would hold when I put pressure installing the spring
    Any suggestions??

    You may be able to get part from Savage, some parts can be had if a release form is signed, give them a call.

    Get ready I'm going to show my ignorance.

    Does anyone think that you could JB wield the pieces together and then us a center punch to expand the pin? It doesn't appear to have that much stress on it or am I wrong?

    Keep trying to find the part. But...if I were in your spot right now, I would use Gorilla Glue. ...EXACTLY as instructions advise.

    I had the same thing happen several years ago and tried the same solutions. None of the adhesives I tried would work. It seems the older bolt stop sear combos had that stupid 2 piece design.
    Finally talked my brother to spot weld it with a wire welder at his job and then filed it down.
    That's the only way I know to fix it other than replacement.

    Short of a replacing the sear I'd use this for a DIY ...

    It melts @ 475 so you can use a butane or propane torch with a fine tip.

    If you tried installing action with trigger guard installed, try with guard removed. Sometimes guard hits trigger housing & needs metal removed for clearance.
