Thanks Lewis and Sax for your input. I appreciate it.
Sax is right, there is no trigger tension spring in my Renegade, like the New Englander has. The only way for the lock and the trigger mechanism to fit together is with the sear arm in the trigger slot. If you put the sear above the slot then it creates even more slop and the trigger becomes free to fall all the way forward until it hits the front of the trigger guard. The slot is what holds the trigger in place, sort of.
Lewis, you mentioned that you would like to tinker with one of these. I'm in northern Utah (not far from the Idaho state line) and would be glad to send you my stock with lock & trigger in place, and let you study it for as long as you want. Maybe you could even work the sear parts a little while it's there to lighten it up a bit... Please pm me if you would like to do this.
