    87a trigger flop


    Recently rescued a neglected 87a... cleaned up nicely. Is it typical for the trigger to have excessive side-to-side movement? The assembly anchor screws are staked to the receiver and the three pins holding it all together are peened over. Seems like a pretty cool rifle. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    DB

    I own a model 7S thats basically the same only mag fed, no problem at all with a loose trigger, something must be worn down.

    I have however got some dirt in it and had it go full auto on me at the range. Took it home and gave it a good cleaning and it's back to normal now.

    Probably easier to replace the whole assembly than try to fix it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Springfield...wCR:rk:19:pf:0
