Timney Lever Action Trigger

Long appreciated for producing trigger upgrades for various semi-automatic and bolt-action rifle designs, Timney has now brought its trigger-tuning prowess to the resurgent lever gun platform.

Available in both black and nickel finishes, the new Lever Action Trigger is compatible with Marlin 1894, 1895 and 336 models, not only shaving a few pounds off the factory trigger-pull weight (to between 3 lbs. and 3 lbs., 8 ozs.), but also eliminating the infamous “flop” associated with these rifles’ triggers.

The Lever Action Trigger is also relatively easy to insert yourself, taking only about 10 minutes to complete installation.

MSRP for the Timney Lever Action Trigger is $200 (black); $225 (nickel).
