Trigger plate bent?

Post by dozer »

Can the cast trigger plate be bent slightly?? The Shilo I just purchased has a slight warp to the plate. I would like to bend it slightly to make it lay flat at the tip. It is currently just under 1/16" out at the tip. I'm refinishing the stock and noticed some "extra" finish or bedding under it and removed it. It will now lay flat but the other end (where it screws to the frame) is out 1/8". It will probably spring that much but I haven't tried as I'm not ready to reassemble yet.

Good morning Dozer, The measurements your giving are big, I am confused where the trigger bar could be sticking out 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch. You might should call me so I can get a better vision. Thanks Kirk
