    Several units are on the market. All are good. Price runs from about $70-110 plus labor. Fairly easy to install.

    I have replaced the horrible triggers on 2 MK II's with Timney triggers. First a friend and I did and it took 3 hours without machine tools. The second I took to a gunsmith who did it in 20 min and charged me $15.00. There is a block of steel that has to be machined down to fit the safety of the individual rifle. Also requires a bit of file or dremel work on the stock. That said, the Timney's are adjustable, and mine are set for hunting at 3.5 lb. They break like a thin glass rod. Just a bit of trouble, but they are worth it. Cost $75 to $80 plus smithing.
