For some time I have owned a couple of Interarms and Whitworth 98 variations. Never paid much attention to them and set them aside as 'project guns'.

Well, a couple of months ago I pulled one out of the safe and began to 'play' with it and make some upgrades. Added a 3-position safety, first. Then I decided to lose the factory trigger with its horrendously long pull and install a Timney. It's about this time when things started to go astray. Seems the Timney trigger I have will not work with a notched cocking piece. Works fine on the flat-bottomed, commercial cocking piece that I have in another Interarms.

This brings me to my questions:

1) Is there a source for the flat-bottom cocking pieces?

2) Do I have the wrong Timney for my application and the notched cocking piece? The Timney I have is the #201, described as "M98FN" Do I need the #202, described as "M98K"?

I would suggest you do have the wrong Timney trigger assembly. I installed a M98K model on my Oberndorf Mauser sporter without any issues or alterations needed other than a tiny relieving of wood in the stock. This fine trigger breaks like glass and has given years of trouble free service.

The question that begs asking is 'Did/Does your Oberndorf Mauser sporter have a flat-bottom or notched cocking piece?'

After the exchange of several emails with Tech Support @ Timney, I have to say, they are less than helpful.

Sorry should have elaborated, mine has the notched cocking piece. I have checked the original packet my Timney came in and it is labelled M98-K Sportsman (note, that is a 33 year old packet)
