I have been looking at the above, has anyone had anything to do with the rowan trigger. Do they fit straight into the rapid and also will it work with a trigger guard fitted
Cheers

Well before Rowan got involved with triggers for the Mark 4... I did my own...
Here is the first iteration.......

I chopped one of the Early "Stick" trigger arm and threaded a 1/8" rod into it.
Then I used an Anschutz adjustable Trigger blade!
Here is a photo of the early Stick and later Setback Triggers by Theoben...

Then I got my CNC Mill and decided to redesign and Make it more Clean looking....




Good Luck,
Stuart

Yes they fit straight in, obviously they do need adjusting.
If you're putting it into a late mk1 ambi there isn't much room for travel

Well if you want to get the most out your Mark 4 Trigger...
First make a set of Brass spacer/shims and hand fit them!


This will eliminate any sideways wobble!!
Gives you a more Precise Feel!!
Also you can use Ball-Bearing tip screws on the trigger arm....if you can find them..

Or just file to round off the cup on the tip of the standard grub screw, and polish them!!!

Have Fun!!

you're welcome.

A quick correction- if you're looking to bring the blade backwards to reduce pull length with the sporter stock .....then there isn't much room for for a long trigger pull.
Does adjust down to a nice short squeeze tho.

Even though I have fairly large hands the straight mk4 blade felt a little too far forward in that stock and the mk4  set-back felt too wide as if my finger was on the edge rather than in the centre.

Was a little too far back when  in my S-type stock so moved it forward ...I almost wish I'd gone for the anodised button ;D

Wow, if only, that pure skill, something I'm rather short of I'm  😆
