[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3331374, member: 10465"] Oh yeah, I solved my issue with the barrel, tang screw, and trigger. :cool: Cut a tiny bit out where the rear tang sits in the inlet on the stock, mated everything up, put the screw in through the trigger assembly to check the fit, and sanded the top of the stock where it joins the barrel tang flush. That part had me a bit worried. I mean, it's kind of important that the trigger will engage the sear correctly, and the way it was...it wouldn't, because the tang screw that holds the barrel to the rear of the stock didn't fit in the hole in the trigger assembly quite right. It's hard to explain, but I saw in at least one review/YouTube thing I looked at that on these kit rifles that told me this issue was not unique to my particular build. That is one area that has to be fit just right or rifle no go boom. I am now satisfied that the action is mated correctly to the barrel. It should be mentioned in the instructions, but it's not. They leave it to you to figure out. :shocked: Part of the fun! I'm pretty sure it's gonna go boom just fine. :thumb: [/QUOTE]
