AR15 trigger options?
« on: April 22, 2019, 06:32:48 PM »
So I've set up an upper in 6.5 and one in .223 so my daughter can get more practice in on the .223 and then transition into the 6.5 for hunting.  She is shooting well but is having a tough time with the mil spec trigger which are junk. I was about to just order a triggertech comp that is set at 3.5lb but got digging and holy hell there is a pile of options.

So the question for all you AR guys out there.  What's my best bang for my buck?
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton

Best bang for the buck  Larue MBT hands down.

I put a CMC single stage in my 6.5 that I got on sale at primary arms for 140 bucks. I bought it without knowing a whole lot about it but would definitely buy one again.

Black rain ordinance drop in trigger all the way. 3.5# but feels a bit lighter when first putting it in vs mil spec

Don't know about "bang for the buck", but my Geissele SSA-E's are awesome.  https://geissele.com/super-semi-automatic-enhanced-ssa-e-trigger.html  If you wait, they come on sale.  I think I paid 160 each for mine.

The AR gun nuts at work are moving from Geissele to LaRue because of the price point and are happy with how they shoot, but I have no personal experience.  https://www.larue.com/products/larue-tactical-mbt-2s-trigger/

If money is no option I would go with one of the Geissele SSA or other options. Wilson combat triggers are nice as well.
Lots of resent trigger on the market.

I have built probably 20+ with ALG and Wilson. For there price point I really like them and build lots with them.

If your jumping up to next level $. Timney pof cmc are all solid choices.

Hop on you tube and bust out some sand paper, invest in a small file kit. For $20 you can get a file kit and play with sand paper. I've been pretty amazed what a guy can do with those basics... if you don't like it you can still buy one.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Agreed
They also sell replacement springs,
Enhanced trigger, for fraction of cost that sand paper can do wonders.

I have a few of the CMC 3-3.5lb triggers and they have been great.  They can be bought for around $130 and are an easy drop in trigger.
