there was not much you could do about it. I don't remember if Timmeny had an aftermarket but it would surprise me if they offered a $125 trigger for what was basically an economy gun.
They have a very rigid receiver design with minimal openings compared to others. The rear locking lugs on a two piece bolt were a bit of a mystery to me too. Plastic safety and plastic sights were innovative (this was before plastic guns were common) but always worked. And the single stack mags were a bit tinny feeling but in function were great.
