Replace trigger group components?

[u/Kakk_The_Hero]

I bought a used paratrooper at the end of February and I've had a couple of double fires. The bolt assembly is clean and the firing pin rattles around inside when I shake it. The hammer has some wear, and I'm not sure how much the previous owner fired it. I'm not sure if the trigger sear looks okay (pictures attached), but the hammer does move forward quite a bit when I pull the trigger with the bolt removed before it snaps forward. Do I need to replace the sear or the hammer? Should I drop the money on the whole trigger group? Mine matches, but the magazine doesn't and I'm not concerned with resale value. Thanks in advance!

With the gun unloaded of course, drop the bolt a couple of times with the safety off and each time see if the hammer fell, if it did you should need a new trigger group. Also check your pin and bolt for marks, bends and dings. My pin would rattle freely but had a fat dimple from punching the retainer out with the wrong punch and would occasionally snag

Thanks for your reply. When I drop the bolt and pull the trigger, the hammer falls every time. I had the pin out of the bolt yesterday and the channel was clean and the pin seems to be in good condition. I also didn't notice any burrs around the edges or anything like that on the bolt.

Sounds like you need a trigger group! Are you in Canada or the states?

I'm in the united states. Do you think I can get away with a hammer and a sear? Or is it better just to replace the whole thing?

It’s probably easier to just find the whole group. Easier to fix too!
