    My MK1 has a gamo trigger which I modified to single pull as I don't like double pull triggers by the addition of a 10p pipe olive and nothing else, everyone who has used it comments on how nice the trigger is to use.

    I fitted a Charlie Tuna trigger to mine, improved it no end but still not perfect. That vague feeling has gone at least

    fit a trigger shoe.the sears can be polished to get rid of any creep.a little trick is to use tooth past as a mild polish.

    As a number of folks have posted on this thread a Welsh Wiley or CDT trigger blade can help a lot. Or just a polish and shoe as Kev suggested.
