I just bought a NOS target rifle. It is new in the original box. The trigger pull is way to heavy. I backed out the adjusting screw to it's lightest setting. The best way to explain the trigger pull is that it's seems to catch and then suddenly let's go. I pulled the trigger and it looks like there is a "hook" on the trigger sear that catches a "hook" on the firing pin. I think this hook on the two parts is the problem. When you squeeze the trigger these parts have to cam past each other. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

these sites may be of some benefit... good luck.
