Yesterday I was sent two Anschutz Match triggers for repair, one with a broken catch link and the other with an unspecified issue. When I picked the parcel up I could hear rattling, so I unwrapped it to find an intact trigger with a catch link broken, as expected and a small food container with the other trigger in bits, and I mean bits, all 28 parts totally stripped down!
Apparently a gun shop in Wales had "borrowed" a couple of Anschutz Rapids from trusting owners in order to investigate an issue with a Rapid they had in. They wanted to compare the triggers, but returned them to the owners as sent to me, broken and stripped! Unbelievable. My suspicion is that the shop did a swap with a broken one they already had and the stripped down trigger was a failed attempt at repairing and rebuilding. Anyway, I've only charged the owners the bare minimum for my time and the cost of parts.
After mowing the lawn I decided to have a couple of hours on the triggers, here are the results. One ready to shoot and one waiting a new catch link but 80% rebuilt. Fucking hell, my eyes ache!
got to be the worse job on a rapid paul m8.not that many people will attempt them.do you still get parts from ruag.
