TIMNEY TRIGGERS | RUGER 10/22 | 2-STAGE | 1022CEBL
Two Defined Stages. One Clean Break.
The Timney 1022CEBL replaces the conventional Ruger 10/22 trigger group with a complete two-stage assembly: an 8 oz first stage followed by a 16 oz second stage. Its black housing, red trigger, short magazine release, and interchangeable trigger shoe options make this a purposeful choice for a carefully configured rimfire rifle.
A two-stage trigger changes how the shot develops. Instead of working through a single continuous pull, the shooter feels a deliberate first stage before reaching the second-stage break. On the Timney 2 Stage 1022CEBL, the two stages are factory tuned to 8 oz and 16 oz respectively, for approximately 1.5 lb of total pull. The distinction matters: the pull weight is fixed, not user-adjustable, so this is for someone who already knows they prefer a light, defined two-stage feel.
This is a complete replacement trigger assembly, not an internal spring kit or individual trigger blade. The black housing and red trigger are paired with a short magazine-release design. Interchangeable trigger shoe options allow a different finger-contact shape without altering the factory-set stage weights. It is a different product from Timney’s single-stage Calvin Elite models, and shoppers comparing the two should use the actual 1022CEBL part number rather than relying on the Calvin Elite name alone.
The intended platform is the Ruger 10/22 rifle. As with any replacement trigger, check the exact receiver, stock, chassis, and magazine-release clearance before fitting it, particularly when using aftermarket components. Timney describes this style as a replacement assembly, but final fit and safe function must be confirmed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. For a broader look at the platform, visit the Pete’s Pillars Ruger 10/22 parts and upgrades guide.

A predictable break pairs naturally with a consistent barrel and stock setup. We carry several rimfire barrel options, including traditional stainless and blued profiles, fluted designs and lightweight carbon-fiber models. The following barrels are for standard fixed-barrel 10/22 configurations; do not substitute them for Takedown or Charger barrels without confirming the model.

Three distinct stock and chassis directions for standard Ruger 10/22 builds; confirm trigger-guard and release clearance.
The Timney is the trigger choice here, not a requirement to replace every other action component. If you are completing a new rifle or comparing major alternatives, these trigger assemblies, complete bolts, and optics are separate decisions. The Volquartsen TG2000 and TandemKross Manticore are alternatives to this Timney—not parts to combine with its internal trigger mechanism. KIDD is another common comparison for the 10/22, but pull weights and configuration differ by model.

Timney 1022CEBL Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Timney 1022CEBL a true two-stage trigger?
Yes. The first stage provides a defined 8 oz take-up, followed by a 16 oz second stage that reaches the break. It is not the same as a single-stage trigger with a different shoe.
What is the total pull weight?
The factory settings are 8 oz for the first stage and 16 oz for the second, totaling approximately 24 oz (1.5 lb) of pull through both stages.
Can the trigger pull weight be adjusted?
No. The two-stage pull weights are factory set and not user-adjustable. The interchangeable trigger shoe options are for finger-contact preferences, not for changing the factory pull weight.
What firearms does 1022CEBL fit?
This complete trigger assembly is made for Ruger 10/22 rifles. Confirm compatibility with the exact receiver, stock or chassis, and any nonstandard or aftermarket components before installation. Do not assume universal compatibility with every 10/22-pattern build.
Will it fit a Ruger 10/22 Takedown or Charger?
The listed platform is the Ruger 10/22 trigger-group system, but this product’s source documentation does not separately certify every Takedown or Charger configuration. Verify your specific model and stock clearance with Timney before ordering or installing.
What is included with the trigger?
The 1022CEBL is a complete trigger assembly with a black housing, red trigger, short magazine-release configuration, interchangeable trigger shoe options, and a mounting tool. It is not a loose trigger-shoe-only kit.
Does it have the short or extended magazine release?
This is the short magazine-release version of the Timney 1022CE two-stage assembly. Compare the release geometry with your existing stock or chassis for control access and clearance.
Is this the same as the Timney Calvin Elite single-stage trigger?
No. This listing is the 1022CEBL two-stage model with distinct 8 oz and 16 oz stages. Other Calvin Elite 10/22 offerings may have different pull behavior, shoes, or magazine-release configurations; match the part number.
Does installation require a gunsmith?
Timney designed the unit as a replacement assembly, but firearm-specific fitment and functional safety checks are essential. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and use a qualified gunsmith whenever proper installation or function is uncertain.
Will the Timney fit an aftermarket 10/22 chassis?
Not automatically. Chassis and stocks can differ around the trigger guard and magazine-release cutout. Check fitment and release clearance with the chassis maker and Timney, particularly for nonstandard receiver or grip arrangements.
How does it compare with the Volquartsen TG2000 or KIDD two-stage?
The Volquartsen TG2000 is a separate complete trigger-assembly option. KIDD also offers two-stage designs, but weight settings, control layout, and fitment vary by model. The Timney 1022CEBL is defined by its factory-fixed 8 oz plus 16 oz two-stage pull and short release.
Is this suitable for casual plinking and new shooters?
It is aimed at shooters who deliberately want a light, clearly staged trigger. A 1.5 lb total pull can be unsuitable for some recreational or introductory uses. Choose a pull weight appropriate to the shooter, intended use, and safe handling conditions.
Are a replacement bolt and barrel required?
No. The trigger is its own complete replacement assembly; a new barrel or bolt is not part of the purchase. Any other change is a separate build decision, and compatibility should be verified independently.
Is the housing black, and what color is the trigger?
The 1022CEBL version has a black trigger housing and red trigger, with the short magazine release. Do not confuse it with other housing colors or release-length variants.
