Ruger Mk1 Target trigger

[H Richard]

I know there are replacement triggers made by Clark, Tandemcross, and (The one from up in Iowa, can't recall name at this moment).

Has anyone formed a preference of which one produces the best, smooth, light, target trigger.

Also, which one is the easiest to install.

Thanks in advance.

Volquartsen make some good triggers. My wife loves hers.

If you want a smooth, light, target trigger,, you do not need to replace the trigger,,

You need to replace the SEAR,,,

The Volquartsen sear is made at a slightly different angle,,
it takes out all the "stuff" you dislike about a factory Ruger action,,,

The aftermarket triggers will eliminate side play,, etc,,,,
that does not change the # of pounds required to actuate the trigger.

This gun has a nice 2# trigger,,

So does this one,,

I have not been able to improve the trigger on this one,,,,,,,,,,

Yup, Sweetmk nailed it. The Volquartsen sear is what you need and is 90% of the secret sauce. I personally like their triggers as well but not everyone does as they are not serrated like the originals. On a heavy use target gun I prefer the steel trigger over the aluminum one as the pivot hole doesn’t wear as quickly causing side to side play.

The only original Ruger 22 pistol that I own (pre MK-II) is a Volquartsen conversion. . . . barrel, lockwork and magazine release.

I love it

My MK-IIs are just sear swaps and they are a greaat improvement
