Tikka trigger with bolt release (3 position safety)

[Marbles]

The S20 trigger shoe is 0.35" wide.

Because the position of the shoe is adjustable, I had to length my opening front to back to back as well.

Thanks, I'd definitely need to open up the sides a bit to fit it in. Currently, I have a two stage tikka oem trigger. I'll stick with that for now.

Did the S20 get discontinued or something? It's odd to see EuroOptic has no S20 rifles at all.

Apparently not.

Beretta email arrived this morning titled "Sako S20 family range is expanding - left-handed rifles!"

I wonder if KRG could make one? Do n't think it would be hard.

So, Sako S20 triggers fit a T3x with the only modification needed being opening up the trigger slot in the bottom metal for the wide trigger shoe.

The primary advantage is the addition of a bolt release while on safe in a known reliable trigger system.

They come in both two stage and single stage versions.

They are almost identical to Tikka triggers, but made slightly better as evidenced by 4 staking marks around each pin rather than the two on Tikka triggers.

MWG had one TST in stock and one single action. I have the TST in hand, I cannot find any other Sako S20 trigger in the US (only Slovakia and Finland with no out of country shipping). I ordered the single stage from MWG today because I doubt I will ever find another and the bolt release is what I really want for added safety teaching kids to shoot.

Bix N Andy makes an S20 trigger, but I don't trust it. It looks to have the bolt release button though.

@Unknown Munitions or any other Tikka/Sako dealer can Sako S20 triggers be ordered?

I am interested in following up on your comment about the Bix trigger. My company represents the brand in the US and we would love to know more.

Awesome to have someone reach out.

It is a superficial level judgement, not one based on experience. Lots of small parts inside the trigger that look more prone to jamming up in dust environments or if I slip and dunk my rifle in a bog or if moisture gets into it in below freezing weather.

In the past I have read reports of some people having those issues. If I remember correctly @Lawnboi has not had any problems with his though.

I have not personally tested one.
