I picked up a beautiful condition, slightly Bubba'd (some idiot sunk sling studs into the stock and painted the sling ferrules black?!?!?) Hungarian M44 at a recent gun show. I removed the sling studs, filled the holes with plastic wood and colored to get close to the blonde stock color. Have not shot it yet and upon further examination for cleaning and adjusting the firing pin protrusion, I discovered that this M44 has a hair trigger.
I did the phone book test (cocking empty gun and slamming butt of gun down on phone book), yep, the trigger was triggered by doing this. I took the trigger apart and it appears that someone either stoned the trigger sear off at a "Finnish" angle or installed a "Finn Angled Sear?" and perhaps did too much polishing on the contact point? See picture. So is fixing this as easy as ordering a new sear from Numrich? The rest of the trigger seems untouched, rifle is in great shape. I just don't want a hair trigger gun.

Thanks for any advice.
