[QUOTE="epoletna, post: 1753551, member: 87371"] "The owner before my father in law took a file and shaved down the catch on the bottom to turn it into a "hair trigger"" Not sure what you're referring to here -- the catch on the bottom of the bolt? Or on the trigger". If its was on the "bottom of the bolt", that would probably have been on the rear of the firing pin itself, and replacing the piece that turns onto the back of the firing pin would have been sufficient to make it safe once again. If they indeed replaced the entire bolt, I trust they checked the headspace. If you're interested in having a lighter trigger than what you have on it now, there are a number of aftermarket triggers that can be installed on a Mauser and adjusted with a small screw driver.
