Well, have to say, if you've fitted rowan triggers, I imagine you would have read the fitting instructions, will you be letting them know that there fitting instructions are potentially unsafe, because they pretty much suggest to do them the same way that I do it .

Rog, I wasn't looking for an argument and "crap" was just a joke. As I said, I know you know how to do it. So this is for the OP's benefit.
What Rowan say:
"Unscrew the second stage screw 3-4 turns
and also the first stage screw so that the rifle will
not fire.
Screw in the first stage screw 1/8 a turn at a time
and
try to fire the rifle. Adjust until the travel feels
correct and the rifle fires. The gun now is operating
on the first stage only. Unscrew slightly so the gun
does not fire.
Now screw the second stage screw 1/8 of a turn
in each time until you can feel the second stage and
the gun fires, then screw in another 1/8 to 1/4 of a
turn.
If you adjust the first stage screw for more of less
travel, you will need to readjust the second stage
correctly."
What I said:
"Wind the front screw out so the gun won't fire at all. Then wind the front screw in while the trigger is held in the rearward position so it just fires, then back out a bit, just enough so it won't fire on the first stage. Then bring the second stage into play. "
"Personally I don't like TMP's setup; I prefer a shorter 1st stage travel..."
So nothing I said contradicts what Rowan Engineering advise.
Rog, the bit you missed was the bit in bold ... you actually have to pull the trigger. It may seem obvious to you but if the OP is a novice and follows what you said literally, leaving the trigger in the forward position and screwing the first stage in until the gun fires, then it has no sear engagement and is unsafe.
