[QUOTE="jdyoung, post: 2075089, member: 113391"] I'm pretty sure that's a Mauser 98, a view of any markings on the front receiver ring, or left side of the action could give insight to the exact year and place of mfg. Set triggers need the inletting to be exact to work properly. That's why there are what you described as "pillars" to keep the proper spacing between the bottom metal and receiver. Any rot or swelling of the wood will disturb this spacing causing the trigger(s) to be off. [/QUOTE]
