Hi guys, do you have the instruction sheet from TNW. If you need it I could copy it...Phil

A couple photos of the TNW setup. Probably works best on their own receiver, which I have thanks to the kindness of Chris P Cook, who let me buy his! The low point (back bottom corner) of the trigger lever is .425" back of the trigger housing pin C/L, and .60" up from this point when cocked with bolt closed. Does that help any? Need more dimensions?
Notice that the pivot hole in the trigger gate is oval. It's really loose on the pin. If it were dilled more precisely, the trigger might not need to travel so far. It seems to lose a lot of its stroke. Lots of built-in slop in the system, must be for a good reason. Seems to depend on everything being perfect! Most great tools (hammer, AK, beercan opener) work in spite of things being imperfect.....Good luck, Phil
