AK-47 – Drop-In Trigger – Single Stage 3.5 lb – Curved Red
PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK DETAILS AND FITMENT BEFORE PURCHASE.
The Timney AK-47 Drop-In Trigger is a self-contained single-stage upgrade built for shooters who want a cleaner break and a more precise feel than the typical factory AK setup. This cassette-style trigger uses a curved shoe, a fixed 3.5 lb pull weight, and a drop-in design that keeps the install cleaner than the usual bag-of-parts circus.
It is finished in red and built to fit a broad range of AKM-pattern rifles, with an adjustable screw to match existing safety levers and four set screws that secure the housing in the receiver. Installation hardware is included. Available options are organized below under Variants.
Fitment
- Fits many AKM-pattern rifles
- Compatible with Bulgarian, Chinese, East German, Hungarian, Korean, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, United States, and Yugoslavian AKM-pattern rifles
Does NOT fit
- AK pistol-caliber carbine variants
- AK shotgun variants
- Zastava / M70 AK variants
What it does
This trigger replaces the factory AK fire control feel with a non-adjustable single-stage 3.5 lb pull that breaks cleaner and more consistently. The result is better control, less mush, and a more predictable trigger press when it is time to send it.
Why it’s worth it
Factory AK triggers can be rough, gritty, and about as refined as a cinder block in work boots. This Timney unit gives the platform a more modern trigger feel without turning the rifle into a science project. It is also backed by Timney’s lifetime warranty and made in the USA.

Install notes
This trigger uses an adjustable screw to accommodate different safety levers and four set screws to secure the housing in the receiver. It is designed as a drop-in unit, but AK pattern tolerances are not always polite, so proper fitment and function testing matter.
Verify before you buy
Verify your rifle is an AKM-pattern gun and not an M70, AK shotgun, or pistol-caliber AK variant. If you are buying for a rifle with oddball country-specific geometry or previous internal modifications, double check compatibility before you hit checkout.
