Jewell Trigger Instalation
Jewell Trigger Instalation
I installed a Jewell Trigger in the 204 ar today. I have to say this trigger had the poorest instructions I have ever seen. The trigger was new but at least ten years old. A good friend bought it years ago when his buddies gun shop was closing for good. He never installed it due to the poor instructions. It took me a while but I have it working well. I dummy fired it a few times after adjustment with a dummy case. I have to say what a huge improvement over my stock dpms ar triggger. I cant wait to try it out. Hopefully weather permitting I am going out in the morning Coyote hunting. I am also curious to test my accuracy off the bench. When the weather warms we shall see.

Re: Jewell Trigger Instalation
I have tried a couple stock triggers, a Timney, and a Jewell. So far the Jewell is my favorite and the one I recommend.

Re: Jewell Trigger Instalation
The trigger by Arnold Jewell is just simpley THE best trigger for replacement on the planet, period. I've got Rifle Basix, Timney, Canjar, Moyers, Jard, Kipplenger, and a couple of custom triggers without names......they're all good, but my Jewell triggers are the jewels of the batch. Gotta admit though, I've never installed one in a gas gun....never felt the need.
If the instructions are followed, they are simple to install, and in use, well......there just is not a better trigger that I'm aware of. Olympic shooters install them in their competition rifles where allowed.....need we say more?
