Ruger mark 1 trigger pin removal.... How??
Thanks for all the help I've gotten on my Mark 111. They are up and running " VQ" sears, "Sam" bushing, Brownells springs etc..... Now I'm back to my Mark 1... I don't know what to do to remove the trigger, the (trigger pin) But I don't see any spring or anything holding the trigger pin in. I've looked at the Mark 11 instructions ... but I don't see any spring to push on??? It doesn't want to tap out? I don't think this pistol has ever been disassembled before.... I've searched here. It's about 99 percent nice. Mike
Hi Mike, there is an 'E' clip on the right hand side of the trigger pin holding it into the frame. You can use a Jeweler's screwdriver to push it off the pin and down into the frame. Once you remove the trigger you can recover the snap ring for installation. The 'E' clip ring is shown on this picture as A34-1 (circled in red).
Hope this helps.

Yep, helped
Well, that's it... I could see something in there but didn't have the parts diagram. A side note: I shoot at Rio Salado in Arizona in various competitions on a weekly basis. My wife never liked the competition atmosphere... finally got her to try the monthly steel plate 22 match, now we are regular competitors. Took my 40 year old son out last Sunday to the match.. he also had never had shot in competition before and did very well. All this gives me a chance to tinker with more guns!!

Being an old service tech, I can vouch for the use of the proper nomenclature to get the job done, those words do not appear in the service manuals, they are things you learn as you go.greener wrote:I spent a while and a bit of technical language getting that clip off. The hard part was it was very difficult to see.
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.
