 Several months ago I showed pics and described a Dlux 94 Short rifle having a 5 digit SN, Takedown, Pistol grip and dbl set triggers. I have disassembled the rifle and am reassembling it. I can’t seem to remember what order and how the 3 small leaf springs for the set triggers go. The books I have do not show this and I have tried many combinations and am stuck. Anyone have any reassembly insts to scan and forward. Just for info the rifle was filthy on the inside with at least a 100 years of southern New Mexico //Arizona  red dust and congealed grease. Much more of the original blued finish is coming to light. So again thanks much for everyones help.

This is all I have about set triggers otherwise I would have to look when I get home in a few hours. Did it work before you cleaned it?

Hi As A toolmaker I tried to make notes when disassembling 

I dont have the springs in front of me but here are my notes for leaf spring order

My 1894’s have close coupled triggers , straight stock

bottom spring is for rear trigger thin tab to far right  

middle    sear spring wide tab to left

top     long thin finger resting on emboss to the right (front trigger spring)   ( tab to the right )

I wish I still could work on my guns but MS limits me as it so happens I have a 1894 that needs these springs adjusted and cant do it

My Set is working but needs 2 trigger sets and pulls to fire

Let us know if you get it working

This is for a straight stock but should be essentially the same for a pistol grip stock:
