Re: Whittaker Special out of it's stock
I have just 'discovered' another Whitaker and am just waiting for details of the serial number to try and get it dated. Interesting how they still turn up from time to time.

Re: Whittaker Special out of it's stock
I keep looking at the trigger job on this rifle with the revised spring format, was it only Bert who did this or did others do similar?

Not too sure whether Bert's trigger work was unique or not??
Geoff Hart on the other hand preferred to use Brindles triggers.

Do you know if the No4 the only Enfield a Brindle trigger was designed for?

I'm pretty sure that I have seen mausers advertised with them fitted.
i will email John Light and ask him.

Interesting. Is the new screw adjustable for weight?

Re: Whittaker Special out of it's stock
Certainly there was a Whitaker suitable for the P14 as I fitted one to mine although at the time.
Time for a new trigger thread regarding the different spring.

Re: Whittaker Special out of it's stock
My Musgrave (basically a Mauser action) has a Brindles trigger fitted. I'm considering binning it, it's not very consistent.
I write words for money - but not here. If you think my words here are written to the same standard as my words for money elsewhere, you're wrong. Have a nice day.
