I know this is a Marlin forum but I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with Winchesters, also!! I was in Tennessee this weekend for the annual Guns and Ammo Forum SE shoot. One of the other members from south Florida brought several rifles is wife recently inherited. It's an 1894 in .38-55 with a pistol grip and what's called the short set trigger. The rear trigger is very close to the front trigger and the rear trigger moves forward when the rifle its cocked. It didn't seem to make the trigger pull any lighter, does the rear trigger still have to be pushed farther forward to set it?? Or would the set screw have to be adjusted to lighten it?? I didn't have a lot of time to inspect the rifle and I'm waiting for more information from him so I can do some more research. I'll have to get some pictures, 'cause there was also a take down version of this rifle, not sure if this one is or not!!
