MAKING TRIGGER
ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING: ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE FIREARM IS
UNLOADED BEFORE ADJUSTING THE TRIGGER.
• The Smith & Wesson i-Bolt ™ rifle has a trigger which is factory set.
• Adjustments may be made by the user.
• Verify that the firearm is unloaded and that the safety is in the
full-back “SAFE” position, then proceed as follows:
• The trigger adjust-
ment screw uses a
3/32˝ Hex wrench
(Figure 26) that is
supplied with the
rifle.
• Turning the screw
clockwise (as viewed
from the bottom of the rifle) will increase the level of trigger
pull force required.
• Turning it counter-clockwise will decrease the level of trigger
pull force required.
• After each movement of the adjustment screw, with the cham-
ber empty and the rifle pointed in a safe direction, dry fire the
rifle until the desired pull is achieved.
Dry Firing Note
• Be certain both the magazine and chamber are unloaded and
keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction, even when
adjustments are being made. The Smith & Wesson i-Bolt™
rifle can be dry fired without damage to the firing pin or other
components. To dry fire, cock the rifle by lifting the bolt handle
fully and returning it to the closed position and then pulling the
trigger (Figures 27 & 28).
