The Timney Trigger Fix Kit is an aftermarket sear and spring system built to clean up the heavy, gritty factory pull found on Remington pump shotguns and autoloading rifles. It fits all Remington 870 shotguns and carries over to the 1100, 1187, 742, 7600, 760, 7400, 740, 750 Woodmaster, 762, and 878. For anyone chasing a Remington 742 trigger upgrade, this kit replaces the stock sear with a precision-machined component and gives the shooter a defined, repeatable break. It's aimed at slug hunters, turkey hunters, trap shooters, and anyone running a Remington for home defense who wants better control without sending the gun to a shop.
The kit centers on a modified Teflon nickel-coated sear that reduces friction against the steel hammer, which is where most of the factory creep comes from. Three color-coded springs let the shooter dial in pull weight: blue runs light at 1.5-2 lbs, white sits in the middle at 2-2.5 lbs, and red holds heavy at 2.5-3 lbs. A hex key screw adjusts the total range from roughly 2 to 5 lbs, so the same kit covers a turkey gun and a defensive shotgun. Timney includes the sear, all three pull weight springs, and the hex head wrench in the box. No special tools are required for the swap, and the result is minimal creep with a cleaner break. Made in the USA in Phoenix, Arizona, and backed by Timney's lifetime warranty.
A Remington 742 or 7600 used for deer with slugs benefits directly from the lighter, cleaner pull, since trigger control is where most field shots are won or lost. Turkey hunters get a crisp break that helps hold a tight pattern on the head and neck. Trap shooters and home-defense users see the same gain in consistency. If you're working through other Remington platforms, we stock the Timney Remington 788 trigger and a full lineup of replacement triggers and kits across rifle and shotgun applications.
Yes. While the kit is built around the Remington 870, it is compatible with the 742 along with the 1100, 1187, 7600, 760, 7400, 740, 750 Woodmaster, 762, and 878. It replaces the factory sear to give the 742 a cleaner, lighter trigger pull.
The kit adjusts across a roughly 2 to 5 lb range using the included hex key screw and three color-coded springs. The blue spring runs lightest at 1.5-2 lbs, white sits at 2-2.5 lbs, and red holds at 2.5-3 lbs, so you can tune it to the application.
The kit includes the modified Teflon nickel-coated sear, all three color-coded pull weight springs, and a hex head wrench for adjustment. No special tools are required to complete the installation.
