Hello, I have a CETME that is not working correctly and was looking at changing out the Trigger Pack.  My question is what pack do I replace it with?  Also is my rifle a C308?  There isn't any markings on it.  Thank You....

This is my rifle.........




But several of the replacement trigger packs show holes up front and I want to know if they will fit?




Trigger parts look like they are in good shape and not worn.






EDIT...  Thanks I found another Semi pack and now it works as it should.

A lot of the replacement trigger packs you will find are full auto packs.

They will need to be converted to semi-auto only.

Unless you find an already converted trigger pack.

The housing has the front pin ears cut off of it. You can re-use the housing. The trigger pack fits inside the housing.

You remove the safety selector and the trigger pack will come out of the top.

This is what you would need to replace your trigger pack if your gun is a .308 or 7.62X51...

Linky...

What caliber is your CETME? Nevermind. I enlarged the one photo and see that it's a .308. So, you have a Century C308.

How exactly is the gun malfunctioning?

Thank you. I saw those but out of stock.

I’m getting doubles sometimes when firing.

I'd take apart the trigger pack and make sure everything was in spec/no worn parts. With a little google-fu you could probably find the small replacement parts if any are needed.

If you're dead set on replacing the whole thing.....

HK Parts has a pack in stock. But, you'd also need the housing and the selector.

These look like they'll work together:

Pack.

Housing.

Selector.

Thanks, but that is going to add up to about what I have in the rifle.     I'll try to find a gunsmith to look at it and see if my current parts are needing replacing.

Taking that trigger pack apart isn't rocket surgery. You should take this opportunity to learn about your rifle.

I was a bit overwhelmed the first time I took apart my CETME trigger pack. Now, it's really easy.

I'd replace the sear spring, trigger, and sear with HK parts.

Disassembly.

Assembly.

Converting to a semi auto style requires welding/brazing a "shelf" in.
