COLT MATCH TARGET LOWER RECEIVER

[THE1WINSTON]

I recently purchased a real nice Colt Match target with Match target HBAR chromed. In the description it said: THE AUTOMATIC TRIGGER FEATURE HAS BEEN NUETERED SEE PHOTO OF HAMMER".
I have attached a pic. What exactly is this for in the picture?

Was it prior gov issue ?

I do not know.

Seems like they wanted to make sure every one knew this isn't and can't be converted to full auto. Still a sweet lower

About 1989-1990, Colt began installing sear blocks in their lower receivers to prevent the later installation of auto-sear components.

Clinton era gun with what looks like large receiver hammer and trigger pins. Not much you can do other than mill off the protruding part to accept a normal bolt carrier. The blocks go down to the bottom and your rifle probably has a modified trigger arm to clear the block. There may also be a blind pin coming up from the bottom under the pistol grip.
I recently did the last 2 of mine very carefully so I could use a normal Colt bolt carrier. Not perfect since I did not have a mill but decent.

It runs perfect with what's in it. I was just curious and wanting to get a clear understanding. Thank you all.

It really irks me when someone does things like this. Granted - I am not a machinist and don't have a mill so my abilities are limited.
This is what I did by hand. Not perfect but it allows for a normal bolt carrier group.

If I had a mill - I could take off the forward part and use a better trigger. But I don't so I just buffed the surfaces shinney. And with large pin Colts - options are almost none.

Cant you just run the large pin adapters and drop in a standard trigger?
