I love the Marauder Trigger Group on my Disco, but it doesn't have a trigger guard, as the original Disco trigger group did. I didn't like the look of the Challenger guard, which I have seen used as a replacement, so I have not had one on my Disco. I looked all around the internet for an alternative, and finally found it, it had been sitting in my Gun Safe all along. The Benji Trail, it has a nice looking trigger guard, and IMHO it looks even better than the original Disco one. I did some measuring, and decided it fit the Disco with a couple mods. I marked the outline of the Guard on the stock, then opened it up with a Dremel and sanding drum attachment trial fitting as I went along. The front mounting screw hole lines up with the same spot that the Challenger Guard would mount, the rear hole is over an empty space, and will need a piece of wood glued in for a screw to be used there. The Benji Trail trigger guard is only $1.54 from Crosman, part # B18-00-11A

Gettin it done ghetto style ... nothing wrong with that at all !!
Good job ;)
Did take note tho that guard does look to be flipped around backwards ???
Typically the deeper pocketed end is at trigger and shallow end the safety.
Just an observation ...
-
Yep does look backward. It looks almost identical to the mrod trigger guard too. I just found out it's the same guard on the nitro venom dusk as well. Anyone have the mrod and one of these other two rifles to compare the guards and see if they are indeed identical? If so then disco owners with the mrod trigger groups would have those two rifle options to buy guards for since crosman does not sell guards for the mrod.
-
Yes, it's backwards, but that's the only way the holes could be lined up to use it. Better than nothing though, or until something better comes along. LOL. Still looks better to me than the Challenger Guard.

You could send it to Norm and he would fix it right up. He inletted and epoxied my stock so the mrod guard would fit. ;)
-
Gil, how did you get an M-Rod trigger guard? I've looked, their is no part number for it on the EVP.
-
You can get them from Norm when you get some stock work done from him but he could fit yours to fit the stock too since you already have a stock and guard. They look identical to me from what I can tell so I can't see a reason for you to bother with trying to find a mrod guard. I'd say contact him about it and go from there. ;)
