Rifle Trigger ID Help Wanted

I am trying to identify a trigger that was fitted to a FN Commercial action by the Army Marksmanship Unit @ Ft. Benning in 1967.I don't think it was fab'd in house, but was made for the AMU by an outside source. It has no manufacturer's marks, and looks like a Timney or Shilen. Neither of these firms has an archieval record of making triggers for the AMU @ Benning. One feature that sets it apart is that it does NOT mount like a traditional trigger, via a pin through the lower ears of the receiver. Instead, it mounts with screws. Any help would be greatly appreciated. E-mail me at jcastaldi1@cox.net for pictures. Thank you in advance......

  Karl Kenyon was a well known gunsmith, particularly noted for his triggers.. He was held in high regard by most shooters, including the AMU.. Take a look here..

  Thanks for the lead, Hangfire. It definitely was NOT the work of Karl Kenyon. I'm still on the hunt...........
