PIN
RETAINER PLATE INSTALLATION
|
|

Start with the selector, carrier,
bolt, and recoil spring assembly removed from your rifle. Pull the
retainer wire (Shepherd's Crook) from the grooves of the trigger and
hammer pins, and remove it from your rifle.
|
|
|
|
Place the retainer plate such that the open end (Area A) is forward,
and slide it along the opposite side of the receiver from where the
selector would be positioned. The closed circle and tail of the
plate (Area C) will be positioned toward the rear of the rifle, as
the selector yoke will ultimately be routed through the closed
circle in the retainer plate.
|
|
When routing the plate forward, ensure that the open end of the
plate is secured in the groove of the hammer pin, between the
receiver wall and the hammer spring. It may be necessary to
"push" the coils of the hammer spring out of the way in
order to seat the hammer pin. Push the plate forward until Area A is
securely around the hammer pin and positioned in the groove of the
pin.

Once
the plate is securely forward, rotate it downward so that the notch
at Area B drops around the groove in the trigger pin. Ensure that
the plate is routed into the groove in the trigger pin as was done
previously on the hammer pin. At this point, if the plate is
installed correctly, Areas A & B should be set in the grooves of
the hammer and trigger pins, and the hole in the closed end of the
plate at Area C should be in line with the hole through which the
yoke of the selector is routed in normal installation.
You may now install your selector by routing the yoke through the
retainer plate and into it's hole in the receiver wall.
Wasn't that easy?
