Big Boy Steel 357mag.
Hello All, I don't have my rifle in front of me. I have a Big Boy Steel in 357mag. I noticed 3 distinct marks on the right side only of the trigger. They appear to be punch marks of some kind. Can anyone tell me what these are. I thought maybe some kind of a proof mark. Thank you. Pa. Woodsman.

Here is a photo of my BBS trigger, showing 4 circular marks on the right side. I don't know for sure, but I'll take a guess … marks leftover from the MIM manufacturing process?

Re: Big Boy Steel 357mag.
These are mold marks from the metal injection molding (MIM) process. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_injection_molding
Several other parts on the Big Boy rifles show similar molding process marks, like the fore end cap. It does not affect the function, but I would have preferred if these marks had been milled and polished away at the factory. However it's the price we have to pay for modern manufacturing and affordability.
