I have an L579 on which I would like to lighten the trigger a bit, something I have never done on any rifle. I downloaded a copy of the manual. Regarding the trigger, all it says is:
Trigger pull is preset at factory to approx. 2 kg weight. Trigger pull can be adjusted from screw B. However, this must never be less than 1.5 kg as even the weight of trigger might cause the rifle to fire if gun is knocked against hard surface. Backlash can be adjusted from screw E. To dismount trigger mechanism, open lock nut D, loosen screw C and take the mechanism out.
Included is a decent diagram of the trigger assembly
The only relevant text is "Trigger pull can be adjusted from screw B." So my questions are:
Thanks,

- All you have to do is turn screw B to lighten the trigger?
- What is "backlash," screw E for? Do I need to mess with that too?
- What is "A" for in the diagram?
Thanks,
