Another vote for velocity. $135 and made by a Timney family member who worked at Timney for years then ran trigger mfg for Knight's. Billet unit instead of the bent sheet metal like the cmc's. Basically a $200 Timney for $135

I have been paying close attention to this thread. I ordered a velocity trigger on the recommendation of a couple people on this thread. Ordered it Friday and got it at 10 A.M. this morning (Monday). Got it installed and ready to rock n roll. I ordered a 4lb because I read somewhere if you shoot steel case ammo, you might need the extra pound pull. Called them and asked and they concurred, "might not hurt". Very smooth and a big improvement over what I had.

Perfectly clean creep free break like a glass rod?

It's pretty crisp. A little heavy for my taste compared to the Timney on my 7mag or the acutrigger on my 7-08. But I understand it needs to be stiffer. I'll be shooting it in a couple days.

I'm not after anything here, just wanting clarification that its eitehr crisp as breaking a glass rod, or has some movement/ IE creep to it.
At some point I want to try the best single stage out there. if it has creep, then its not worth me wasting my time or money as i can get to creep free with a 60 buck RRA trigger.

I understand what you want. The trigger has NO creep, zero, just a little heavier pull than I like. I guess the pull weight being 4lbs is the only thing I'm bummed about. Remember, this AR is an entry level for shooting intruders if we do have a SHTF. Not a hunting rig. Just like my mini-30. Would I buy another trigger like this, yes, in a heart beat, but I would get the 3lb and shoot my reloads.
Does this answer your question. (I'm not trying to be difficult.)

Yep, thanks.
I will shoot intruders with what I have handy at the time. Some have triggers in ounces, some in pounds. LOL.
3 pound single stage is probably the safest I'd go low wise... unless you go 2 stage which is all we've ever run on ARs, even the house ARs have 2 stage on them.
Since we shot a LOT of combat type matches and a lot of IDPA carbine matches with 2 stage we are good with them.
But its good to know there is zero movement before it goes off. Will file that in my data book.

I've got a Geissele 3Gun trigger but am probably going to sell it to fund an AR Gold. Blue, I'm seriously considering an AR Gold as well. I look forward to your field report!

I've bought and tried a LOT of single and 2 stage stage AR triggers and for the $120 or less Rise Armament is hard to beat for single stage.
For 2 stage triggers I haven't shot anything yet that's better than an AR Gold. Geissele Hi Speed National Match and DMR are a close 2nd.

I ended up ordering 2 of the Rise Armament triggers at $99 and free shipping from AIM Surplus (thanks Doug!) - will try them on a Colt 5.56 and a Noveske 300BO.
