Daystate Delta * Alpha Trigger Question..............Need Help

[PNEUMATIC]

I'm a little perplexed over an occurrence which happened earlier today. I took my Delta Wolf out to shoot, for only the second time.
After loading a pellet, the trigger would not press. Safety in the fire position. I noticed that the trigger seemed to be further aft than I remembered. When I tried pressing the trigger again it fell out and into the grass. I was able to locate it, while thinking perhaps there might be springs or pins in the grass as well. Finding nothing else I went into my shop and inverted the rifle. I found that there is a track that holds the trigger. I slid the trigger assembly back into the track about midway.
I then shot three mags, and all is good. Or is it?
How / why did this happen, and how can I prevent a reoccurrence?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Sounds like the trigger post set screw was loose. It also sounds like to solved it.

Thanks ZX for the reply. Where is the trigger set screw located? How is it solved?

I meant to say it sounds like YOU solved it. Here is the fastener I’m speaking of:

Aha should that hex bolt be tightened down?

Yes, snug it once it’s in a position ergonomically in which you like it.

Had a similar issue with my Delta. Moved the trigger all the way aft (on purpose) and the gun wouldn't fire. Unfortunately I stripped the screw on the trigger post when I tried to move the trigger back to a usable position. My fix was a little more involved than yours involving cussing and 3 disassemblies of the rifle. Not sure why they bother having an unusable section of the trigger rail.

Sorry to hear that. At least you are savy enough to get into the rifle.

As an aside here, does the trigger location have any affect on the 4 second hold to unlock the screen?

No.

All positions may (or not) actually be usable if the adjustable trigger blade is also horizontally moved upward. Not much is Sas proof though

While in safe mode the lock on screen not there anymore while adjusting my trigger.
