Well, within reason pricewise (~$100-150), what do you guys think is the best single stage trigger? I have a couple of Geisseles (SSA-E and Nat'l Match) and RRA 2-stages, but thinking I want single stage trigger on a couple of carbines. Not worried about meeting any kind of service rifle requirements, etc.

I would give the ALG a look.

Like my CMC single well enough.

I have a couple of Jard's that break clean. Get the adjustable one and the pick pull weight you prefer, or get several springs at 5 bucks each or a kit for all the available weights.

Rise Armament black is supposed to be very nice for the money. Primary arms had them on sale for $100, but I'm not sure if it's over.

I don't know about best, but I did a lot of review reading before I bought my Velocity trigger and it didn't take a backseat to any comparable unit. Great price too.
Probably only have 700 rounds shot with it but couldn't be happier.

One buddy had mentioned the ALG and another mentioned Spikes, but want to see what you guys recommended.

Not directed to me, but I would personally go with Timney at any cost. I honesty like it more than my Geiselle. I have the GRF (Brownell's version of 3-gun) and I shot a buddy's Timney and liked it more. I plan on running the Geiselle for some speed work and seeing if the reset is helps. If not, I'll go with the better feel (IMO) on the Timney. Full disclosure, I have not tried them all like American Gold and Wilson, etc. But I also have a JP on my 308 for comparison.

Some folks are happy wiht better. Some demand best.
Thats an issue. Depends on how much you want or willing to put up wiht.
In an AR I"ve never felt a bolt gun like trigger crisp, light, and breaks like glass with zero creep. I can get that out of a 2 stage all the time. It took the wife and I about a weekend to get used to using 2 stage triggers in the late 80s... and we transition back and forth to bolt gun triggers both in pounds and ounces all the time...
Personal preference can cost you quite a bit in trial and error.
Cheapest way is to try others triggers but thats hard most of the time.
I live basically a minimum of an hour away from others that have differing triggers for the most part.
And then if you've shot stock AR single stage, it doesn't take much to improve.
Final note, we don't shoot slowly in NTIT matches, and we have always done that iwth a 2 stage. FWIW. We are under a second per shot for sure. And thats firing pretty accurate shots at 600 yards starting...with irons...

CMC is only $134 on sale right now at SWFA.
Rise Fallout is only $100 shipped
Velocity is $135
Next would be the cheaper end such as PSA enhanced, ALG, BCM etc with JP springs and a grip screw mod. I've done that on some and you end up with about a 4lb pull and much less creep than mil-spec. Night and day improvement over mil-spec but not in the same league as the drop in units mentioned above.

have a CMC on my AR10.....it is OK but I guess I was expecting it to be somewhat better....there just enough creep that I find it a bit unpleasant to deal with when trying for very small groups . I cant say I like it any better than a Rock River match I have on an AR15
If I were buying again , I might try one of the 2 stage dropins....I suspect it is easier to get a safe trigger on a semi auto and a glass rod break at the end that way

Different strokes I suppose. I've tried RRA varmint, Geiselle, and Stag 2 stage, didn't like any of them. The drop in single stage are way nicer to me.

Timney next. CMC and the Rise Fallout are close for me. Ive had a JP that was nice also. Ar gold gets great reviews, but Ive never tried one

I've got a Geissele 3Gun trigger but am probably going to sell it to fund an AR Gold.
