Timney trigger, no safety, plus what does Rem. moa trigger mean

[ACES&8S]

Made another mistake, ordered a Timney trigger for my Model 70 - 7mm Magnum.
One said without safety, the other said model with moa// so prevagen kicked in again
and I thought MOA must mean Minute of Angle, so it helps improve the grouping or
something like that. So, I ordered it instead of the one without a safety, every rifle
needs a safety.
Long weekend so Timney is closed, and you guys are awake so: What does
without safety mean????
Also, I can't find a single search that can tell me what Winchesters have the
moa triggers. I already know by disassembly that it isn't mine, so is it stamped
on the rifles or does it have a trade name, because from the outside the moa
looks exactly like my Model 70 -7mm Magnum, but not inside per net schematics
of the moa mystery trigger.
Can you show me a moa model 70 that has this moa trigger????
Guess I need to order the -without safety long action post 64 version instead.

Winchesters made since 2008 have a different trigger than older versions. MOA is just the name they use to describe it. The older triggers was a very simple design that was rugged and worked well in harsh environments. It was easy to clean, but hard to adjust down to a crisp, light pull.

The new MOA trigger is enclosed like virtually every other manufacturer is now using. They are much easier to adjust to a light pull

Without safety means without safety

Just to clarify, Timney offers a number of triggers that feature an integral manual safety, for those who find the option desirable.



I mostly know about Timney's Mauser offerings.

Military Mauser's come with a flag-type bolt shroud safety, which many custom builders find undesirable.



Getting a trigger with an integral safety allows replacing the military shroud with a more sleek commercial type, like those found on FN sporters.



I prefer the old flag-type safety on my Mausers, so I order the trigger type with out a safety.

If you are happy with the factory shroud-mounted safety on your M70, you'll also want the trigger that comes 'without safety'. BTW, the 'with safety' models require stock modification.

Mausers!!!
I got a lot of Mausers but only one is a custom job, it could use a bit of trigger upgrade.
And like you, I prefer the original safeties, keeping them original is best for investment or
even shooting them. But the custom job is having very good precision shoots better than
I can provide accuracy these days.
