Default trigger replacement needed

I recently picked up a '98 "Ankara" mauser. The trigger is horrendous. What are my options for replacement and the best place to shop for one?

Default trigger

Will do Cat, and I can change it, just looking for a good brand like timney, canjar, etc, and whatever else is out there. Where to find one?

OH! In that case Speak with Irv at Western Gunparts in Edmonton , I think they sell Trigger Tech as well as Timney

I'm not sure I'd say shrinking,TT never offered them to start Cat.Too bad really,their triggers are excellent. Timney is a very good option also,I've had a few.I think it being a Mauser itself may be the limiting factor for replacements.

Yeah, that is what I meant DLab, not that I dislike Timneys, but it would be nice to be able too buy a Canjar or something like that, too bad he has gone to quieter ranges.
I have several, but Blackman has a single set Canjar on his Ruger F/O No.1 and it is spectacular!
I have several but they are not single sets, still fantastic triggers though.

Yup ,Blackman has mentioned to me,I think he has another for a Rem.? kicking around also,don't remember if it's a single set though.He was here last month Pheasant hunting,didn't get a chance to visit with him this time around,maybe next time.

I have swapped out several Turkish Mausers with Timney and Bold triggers and never had an issue ......
