He told me they were out of stock and that they have a regular build schedule. Mine shipped two days later.
Now I need to breakdown and buy a drill press.

From pistol to carbine to rifle

Good to know.
I’d like to compare it to my all-metal MAP Disco trigger.
I’ve adjusted it, so it’s very sensitive and crisp, but I did shim it with thin clamshell plastic for a particular build to prevent sear drag.

I ordered one at 1:30 CST and they said only one left in stock. Did they happen to say anything to you? It was weird, the lady immediately said they didn't have any, but then paused for about 45 seconds and said they have one.

Kevin mentioned something about a work order and that mine will be dispatched on or before Friday when I made my order.
Not really in a hurry, but he did give me the order number in case I wanna make a follow-up this week.

I have a project the same as the OP’s but with a LW Mrod barrel (very accurate), and I’ll be using the ordered trigger 
I haven’t gotten my Forti tube drilled yet, so it’s just a PROD tube for now.

I have a Prod trigger group on a Maximus tube, barrel and breach. Buck-rail stock tube and buttstock. Modified Buck-rail Prod forearm. With a Hawke 2-7x32 it weighs 6.9 lbs. I get 35-40 shots at 11.5 fpe.

Fits the 1720 like they were made for each other.
If the one test fire is any indication, I won’t mess with adjustments.
Now on to my woodworking. Sand .07” or so off each side of the stock and it will fit in the hole.
Glue a dowl in an existing hole which will later be drilled for the mounting bolt. Some strategic grinding to boot.
Then figure a hole for the gauge. And if that all goes as planned I will refinish the stock as it does have some nice grain. It’s an old 160 stock, but I am not up on the lore enough to date it.

No but my 1701 and 1720 are that way, but the Prod is righty.
I may switch it when I take it apart to investigate other things. If this works out the Prod may end up in a stock also.

I shoot much better with a traditional stock compared to THs or pistol grip rifles.
The Challenger trigger ships out today said the Crosman lady.

Turned out nice. A pistol works better as a rifle at times.
I need to source a trigger guard and a cheap adjustable butt plate.
Next up is a refinish of the wood.

Looking at the inlet of the stock, would the A.R.T. style trigger guard work?
Here's the .stl on Thingiverse if you have a source to print it. If printed in nylon it should be decently durable.

That would have been the ticket. I forgot their housing included the guard.
Is there site back up?
I ordered a simple metal one from some Remm. 22. With a little bend it will span the 4”.

Still down, the owner said a couple weeks about week ago, so maybe soon? I can give it a shot in PLA and send it off, but no guarantees on the durability.

Thanks but I’ll see how this metal one turns out. It may look more natural spanning the hole instead of sticking out of it.
I am envisioning a piece of black plastic, held in place by the trigger guard, with slots cut for the safety and trigger. That would cover the slot which is quite long.
We’ll see. Now I must start sanding the stock.
