Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles Which Geissele?

For my 6920 Colt LE Cabine? Mostly close range work. (Under 200 yards)

I love my S3G for a hybrid, SSA-E for precision work

I like the SSA-E because you get a precision trigger that has no set screws to get loose or lost.

SSA-E is great!

SSA, SSA-E, or SD-E. Any of them are great.

The G2S is cheaper and works for me.

G2S is safer on a multi purpose gun in my opinion. The SSA-E goes off pretty easy, I have 4 of the E's but the G2S is in my "multipurpose" gun. Use a std trigger spring if you go that way

a RRA NM trigger for 62 bucks is a better deal given your requirements.

I guess I don't understand the "goes off pretty easy" in reference to a two stage trigger. I would completely understand if the 1.5lbs was on a single stage.

Why use the standard spring?

I did not care for the flimsy looking black spring that came with it and TWR recommended this configuration. People are inclined to do what they want,the G2S is a bit heavier pull am not sure I want a light trigger of any sort on a multipurpose gun. This is my opinion only. Hunting and Target shooting are separate considerations

The "flimsy looking spring" is a good spring, it just has a heavier rate than a regular trigger spring. I still use the heavy hammer spring that comes with the G2S but replacing the trigger return spring with standard drops the pull weight a pound.

In fact in my Colt 6920 that uses an Aimpoint, I left the trigger as it was new, the extra pull weight isn't a bad thing on a home defense gun.

Let's argue about springs now! That black spring looks a bit flimsy!

I have the SSA-E and it's a great trigger.

All Geissele triggers are great triggers. I have a couple of the G2S and love them. For close work as you mentioned a G2S would work fine.
I put a trigger gauge on a buddy's SSA and it actually pulled a couple ounces heavier than my G2S. The pull will vary a bit between triggers.

To me the Geissele SSA isn't much different from a national match trigger. The SSA-E is vastly different.

I have an SSA-E and it's light. It's on the verge of almost being too light for cold weather hunting. I do light it for target work.

I suppose it depends on how thick your gloves are and what you are use to. What's the pull on your other hunting rifles?

I would think it was too light if it weren't for the first stage which you should be able to feel and the wall for the second stage is easily found also. I do however hunt in the south and light gloves are all that's ever necessary.
