That was a super deal. I have no idea why those rifles do not hold their value. IMO they are one of the best rifles ever made. I have one that looks exactly like that one. If you need any parts let me know. I might have some extra parts for that rifle.

Take out the one screw in the bottom of the stock and the action wil come out of the stock. The trigger has only one screw also. Take that screw out and the trigger mechanism will separate from the barreled action.

The trigger probably needs a good cleaning also. Take a can of brake cleaner or electrical box cleaner. Spray the dickens out of the trigger. You can not spray too much on the trigger. Then take your air hose and spray the heck out of the trigger. A little left over cleaner will not hurt, it will evaporate. But make sure you get all the "gunk" cleaned out of the triger.

Don't fret a little rust and pitting in that rifle. It will still shoot well with those problems.

Is it #11 ignition?? Or musket cap ignition?? I have a musket cap ignition for that rifle. You need a separate plunger to use the musket cap ignition. I have the musket cap ignition on my MK-85's. It is a better system.

The trigger is worth more than you paid for the rifle. I know, I have paid more than $100 for a Trigger for the MK-85. You got a winner there. Tom.
