Description
The stock trigger is usually the first thing holding back a Ruger 10/22, and this Timney complete drop-in assembly is the fix a lot of folks reach for. Rather than tinkering with springs and shims inside your original group, you get a fully built replacement action that's ready to run right out of the package. The pull comes set from the factory at 2.75 pounds, which lands in that sweet spot for plinking, small-bore precision, and everything in between without feeling twitchy.
What Makes the Timney 1022-1C Different
The heart of this thing is a one-piece housing CNC machined from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade billet aluminum, so it's rigid and holds tight tolerances. Inside, the trigger, sear, and hammer are all wire EDM cut and heat treated steel, which is where the durability and that crisp, consistent break come from. People who've run these describe minimal take-up, a clean break, and very little overtravel, which is a night-and-day difference from the mushy 9-ish pound pull many 10/22s ship with.
Dropping the Timney 10/22 Trigger Into Your Rifle
Installation is about as easy as gun work gets. Push out the two action pins, lift out your old group, and drop this one in place. Most people have it done in a few minutes with basic hand tools and no gunsmithing required. It also comes with a Timney-designed extended magazine release you can hit with a single finger, plus an auto bolt release built right in, so you're upgrading ergonomics at the same time you upgrade the pull.
Built and Tested in the USA
Every one of these is hand assembled, calibrated, and function tested in the U.S.A. before it ships, and Timney backs it with a lifetime warranty. If you shoot your 10/22 for competition, hunting, or just knocking down targets on the weekend, this is one of the more noticeable upgrades you can make for the money.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Timney 1022-1C trigger hard to install?
Not at all, and that's a big part of the appeal. You push out the two action pins, remove your factory trigger group, and drop this complete assembly in its place. Most people have it swapped in a few minutes with basic hand tools and no gunsmithing.
What is the pull weight on this Timney 10/22 trigger?
It comes set from the factory at 2.75 pounds. That weight is calibrated and function tested at the shop before it ships, and it's a fixed setting rather than a user-adjustable one. It's a comfortable middle ground for both precision work and casual plinking.
Will this trigger fit any Ruger 10/22?
It's designed as a complete action replacement for the standard Ruger 10/22 platform and also works with rifles like the SR-22 and Charger that use the same trigger group. Because it's a full assembly, you're replacing the entire group rather than just the shoe. If your rifle uses the factory-style trigger housing, this drops right in.
What comes with the assembly besides the trigger itself?
You get the full one-piece assembly with an integral trigger guard, so it's a true complete unit. Timney also includes their extended magazine release for easy single-finger drops and an auto bolt release built right in. Between those two features you're improving handling along with the trigger pull.
