Does anyone have an exploded parts diagram or internal parts diagram of the Tikka t3x trigger?
I'm looking at my rifle and see no reason why removing the dumb bolt locking pin to make my rifle alot safer to load and unload while the sears still blocked from moving by the safety. Externally it only engages the bolt and has no safety benefit. Just wanted to review a diagram of the inner workings to be sure there's no internal role it plays and see the easiest way to pop her out with minimal disassembly. I'm positive there's no external safety benefit, Timney makes a replacement trigger lacking the bolt lock pin altogether. I'm 99% sure there's no internal connections. Just want to be sure.
From the outside pics it looks like pulling the circlip off the safety lever, sliding it out to the right, then pulling lock pin out, reassemble in reverse with the spring in its home too. Am I missing anything? I'm hoping it's removable. I'd rather do that so It can be put back vs grinding the top off.
